MAUD S— Record 2.10X. 

€i The Queen of the Trotting Turf;" Chestnut mare^ 15 hands 3 
inches high; foaled March 28, 1874, m Kentucky; sired by Harold, 
dam Miss Russel by Pilot, Jr. When three years old Maud was 
handled about sixty days and trotted a half mile trial in 1:13. After 
running out during the winter, the following season she was taken 
up and carefully fitted; the result being that in October she trotted 
a trial over Chester Park, Cincinnati, O., (a half mile track), in 
2.22 ^, and a few days later over a mile track in 2:17)^. She was 
then purchased by Mr. Wm. H. Vanderbilt for $21,000, and taken to 
New York, where she was placed in charge of Mr. Carl Burr, but 
was not speeded. The following summer she was placed under the 
management of her former owner, Capt. Geo. N. Stone, and re- 
turned to Cincinnati, where, at the hands of W. W. Bair who has 
since driven her in all her races, she was fitted for a trotting cam- 
paign. 

In 1880, at Chicago, 111., July 24th, in a match purse against 
Trinket, she distanced the latter, time 2:13^, which stands as the 
best record in a race against other horses. 

At Buffalo, N. Y., August 4th, in the '19 class she won, trotting 
the fourth heat in 2:16^. which stands the best record for a fourth 
heat. At Rochester, N. Y., the following week, she trotted her first 
race against time, getting a record of 2:11^, and closed her season 
at Chicago, 111., in a match against time, by scoring a record of 
2:103^, which has never been equaled or excelled except by herself. 

In 1 88 1, at Pittsburg, Pa., July 13th, against time, she trotted in 
2.10^, again reducing her record.

At Chicago, 111., July 23d, against time, she lost, but trotted the 
second and third heats in 2:11 % and 2:11, which remain the fastest 
third heat and fastest two consecutive heats on record. 

At Philadelphia, Pa., July 28th, against time, she trotted the 
fastest three consecutive heats on record, 2:12, 2:13^, 2:12^. 

At Buffalo, N. Y., against time, she lost, but trotted the second 
heat in 2:10^, the fastest second heat on record. 

At Rochester, N. Y., August nth, against time, she won, reduc- 
ing her record to its present figure. During the season she won in 
purses $18,500. 

During 1882, she was used by her owner for road driving. 

At the Gentlemen's Driving Park, New York, June 15th, 1883, to 
the pole with Aldine, driven by Mr. Win. H. Vanderbilt, to a road 
wagon weighing 211 pounds, the team trotted a mile in 2:15^ going 
to the quarter in 32% seconds, and the half in 1:05^ — a 2:11 gait. 
This, although not a technical record, being merely an exhibition, 
was a most wonderful performance, and is the more remarkable from 
the fact that they were driven by their owner, while other sensational 
trials have been driven by the most expert professionals. 

A brief resume of her trotting career shows that she has trotted 
once in 2:10^ and 2.10^; twice in 2:10^; two heats in 2:11^, 
2:11; three heats in 2.12, 2.13^, 2:12^2! a heat against other horses, 
in 2.133^; a fourth heat in 2;i6j^, and she has been timed in her 
races a half mile in 1:02, and a quarter in 30^ seconds. 

Her total winnings in purses during her brief career have been 
$31,500. Her friends confidently expect to see her eclipse her 
present record, and possibly place 2:05 or 2;o6 as the mark for others 
to aim at. 

ST. JULIEN.— Record 2:11%. 

"The King of the Trotting Turf;" bay gelding, 16 hands high; 
foaled in 1869 in Orange county, N. Y. ; sired by Volunteer, dam 
Flora by Coming's Harry Clay. In 1875 he was brought out at 
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., and during the season started in six races, 
winning them all, and at Springfield, Mass., August 27, getting a 
record of 2:22^, the best of any green horse that year. In 1876, 
2.25 % was his best heat. He was then sold and taken to California, 
passing into the hands of his driver and part owner, Orin A. Hickok, 
who carefully developed his speed until in 1879 he was able to 
eclipse even the great Rarus, and place 2:12^ to his record. In 
1880 he was brought east, and although traveling over ten thousand 
miles and undergoing all changes of climate, was able to go through 
the following brilliant campaign: At Detroit, Mich., June 10th, 

A positive cure for scratches, "Blue Eagle" Ointment. 



against time, 2:17^ — (this track is four seconds slow); Ionia, Mich., 
June 24th, against time, 2:18^; Detroit, Mich., July 5th, against 
time, 2.it%\ Chicago, 111., July 22d, free-for-all, 2:16^; Cleve- 
land, O., July 29th, free-for-all, 2:15^; Buffalo, N. Y., August 5th, 
free-foi-all, 2:15*^; Rochester, N. Y., August 12th, against time, 
2:Tij£; Springfield, Mass., August 17th, free-for-all, 2:15; Hartford, 
Conn., August 27th, against time, 2:ii^ — (his present record); Min- 
neapolis, Minn., September nth, against time, 2:13; Boston, Mass., 
September 25th, against time, 2:13^; Washington, D. C, October 
8th, against time, 2:13^; Prospect Park, October 15th, against 
time, 2:12%. 

This far surpasses any trotting campaign ever made, and fully en- 
titles him to the distinction of "The best campaigner that ever 
looked through a bridle." 

In 1881, he was "off" and trotted but two races. October 15th 
at the Gentlemen's Driving Park, for a purse of $5,000 — winner to 
take all — he met and defeated Trinket, although she was in the pink 
of condition, and he had but just rounded to, best time, 2.14)^. In 
1882 he was again out of condition and did not start in a race; a hard 
blow indeed to Mr. Hickok who expected to see him equal if not ex- 
cel the best record. While his record stands second, no horse has 
yet been found able to live in a race with him, and his owners have 
repeatedly offered to match him for any sum against any trotter in a 
race where each must take chance for position and score and fight it 
out step by step from beginning to end. 

During his turf career he has won twenty-four races, ami in purses 
$60,600. Mr. Hickok reports him now as fine as silk, and thinks if 
he does not go amiss he will place to his credit this season a mark 
that will astonish even his warmest admirers. 

CLINGSTONE.— Record 2:14; 

Sometimes called "The Trotting Machine." Bay gelding, 15 hands 2 
inches high, foaled in 1875, sired by Rysdyk, dam Gretchen by 
Chosroes. He trotted his first race at Rochester, N. Y., August 
nth, 1881, winning in straight heats ; time, 2:24, 2:22^, 2:24. He 
won all his races that season, getting a record at Morrisania, N. Y., 
of 2:1934. He was subsequently sold to Mr. W. J. Gordon of Cleve- 
land, O., for $20,000, and passed into the hands of his present 
driver, Mr. Geo. W. Saunders. Owing to Clingstone's great speed, 
and the fact that few would care to enterthe 'ig or '20 classes against 
him. a special class was organized through the Grand Circuit for 
1882. At Cleveland, O., July 28th, the first of these races was

trotted, the first two heats being among the most closely contested 
ever witnessed, Clingstone winning the first from Edwin Thorne by 
a nose in 2:14 ; and the second was trotted by these two like a team 
to the quarter in 32^ seconds and the half in 1:05, where Cling- 
stone broke Thome's heart and won as he pleased. 

At Buffalo, N. Y., August 4th, the struggle was renewed, Cling- 
stone winning the first heat by u an eyelash " in 2:14^, and the race 
in straight heats. 

At Rochester, N. Y., he lost the first heat to Thorne, this being 
the first heat he had lost during the season, and the second during 
his trotting career. 

At Utica, N. Y., the following week, for the first time he suffered 
defeat. 

At Hartford he again lowered his colors to the great son of Thorne- 
dale. 

At Boston, Mass.. in the Blanchard purse of $10,000 for the 17 
class he only won second money. 

Early in the season this horse was thought invincible, and a match 
against Trinket for $25,000 a side was freely talked of. Probably no 
horse on the turf is so little affected by excitement as Clingstone. 
No matter how prolonged the scoring or hot the race, he never gets 
rattled. His winnings in purses so early in his turf career amount 
to $19,000. 

TRINKET.— Record 2:14. 

Bay mare, 15 hands 3 inches high ; bred by Col. H. C. McDowell, 
at Woodlake, Ky. ; foaled in 1875 ; sired by Princeps, dam by Rys- 
dyk's Hambletonian. As a four-year-old, in 1879, Trinket was the 
sensation of the year, scoring a record of 2:19^, which at that time 
was the best ever obtained by a horse of that age. 

The season of 1880 she came out in fine form, and it was confi- 
dently expected that she could vanquish even her rival for turf 
honors, Maud S. 

They met at Chicago July 24th, and Trinket was distanced in 
2 - I 3/4- Although she lowered her record during the season to 2.19^, 
her campaign was not as brilliant as her admirers had hoped for. 

Mr. John W. Shaw, of New York, became her owner at $11,000 — 
a very moderate price, as subsequent events proved — and she was 
placed in charge of Mr. John E. Turner. This veteran driver com- 
pletely overcame the peculiarities of the little mare, and brought her 
out in 1 88 1 in grand form and as steady as a clock. After a series of 
easy races in the west, to put the fine edge on her, she trotted through 
the circuit in the '19 class, winning all along the line. At Morrisa-

nia, N. Y., Sept. 22d, she reduced her record to its present figure. 
During the season she started in twenty-two races, winning fourteen 
and netting in purses $10,000. In 1882 she did not appear in pub- 
lic. During her trotting career she has won twenty races, and in 
purses, $27,600. 

HOPEFUL.— Record 2:14^. 

Gray gelding, 15 hands high; foaled in 1866 ; sired by Godfrey's 
Patchen ; dam, fry the Brigham horse. Few trotters have had more 
admirers than this game little horse, whose electric bursts of 
speed year after year have aroused to the highest pitch of enthusiasm 
assembled thousands at all the principal trotting parks in the coun- 
try. In 1873, Hopeful began his trotting career, and in 1874, became 
a prominent candidate for turf honors, scoring a record of 2:21 at 
Fleetwood Park, then a very slow track. He was purchased shortly 
after this by Mr. Gillender, of New York, for $25,000. 

He closed the season of 1875 with a record of 2:17^, at that time 
equaled or excelled by only six horses. In 1876 he was turned out. 
In 1877 his fastest heat was 2:i8X« 1878 was the crowning season of 
his turf career. 

At Minneapolis, Minn., September 6th, against time he placed to 
his credit his present record, and at Chicago, 111., October I2th, 
placed to his credit a record to wagon, which has never been equaled; 
the fastest first heat, fastest second heat, fastest third heat, and 
fastest three consecutive heats, excelling the best previous record 
by four seconds, 2:16^, 2:17, 2:17. 

At St. Louis, Mo., against time, although losing, he trotted four 
heats, 2:15^, 2:15)^, 2:15. 2,15^. Truly a wonderful exhibition, 
although not a technical record. 

In 187Q, he was not in good form during the greater part of the 
season, but was able to place 2:i6j^ to his credit, as his fastest heat 
for that year. In 1880, although showing all his former speed, he 
was obliged to meet in the free-for-all class, St. Julien and Darl y, 
and was not often a winner. His best race was at Rochester, N. Y., 
where, in the free-for-all class, he won the first two heats in 2:15^, 
2:16^, but lost the race to Darby. 

In 1 88 1, although starting in eleven races he won but one, his 
fastest heat for the season being 2:18^. During 1882, he was not 
on the turf, owing to the death of his owner, Mr. A. W. Richmond, 
but his driver, Dan Mace, drove him over Fleetwood track early in the 
season a repeat mile in 2:18, and could easily have driven him from 
two to three seconds faster. He is reported to be in fine shape at

present, and will probably be campaigned during the present season. 
During his trotting career he has been placed first in forty-nine races, 
winning 130 heats in 2:30 and better, and in purses, $86,400. 

HATTIE WOODWARD.— Record 2:15^. 

Bay mare, 15^ hands high ; foaled in 1872 ; sired by Aberdeen ; 
dam, Jessie, by old St. Lawrence ; owned by Mr. W. C. France. In 
1880, she was brought out, and driven by Mr. Gus. Wilson, was one 
of the sensations of the year. In her first eight *races she did not 
lose a heat or make a break. 

At Buffalo, N. Y., August 7th, through an oversight she was given 
the word on a break, and lost the first heat to Keene Jim in 2:19^, 
winning the next three in 2:15^, 2:18^, 2:20. Commenting on 
this performance the Spirit of the Times says: "It may fairly be 
doubted if taking all the circumstances into consideration, the feat 
was not the greatest ever performed by a trotter. No other certainly 
has ever made a record as fast when obliged to trot around six other 
horses." 

During 188 1 and 1882 she did not appear, being out of condition, 
but it is expected this season will see her around in form again. 

Since writing the above we learn she has been bred and therefore 
will not appear this. year. 

JAY EYE SEE.— Record 2:16^. 

Black gelding, 15 hands I inch high ; foaled in 1878 ; sired by 
Dictator ; dam, Midnight, by Pilot, Jr. At Chicago, 111., Septem- 
ber 23d, 1882. this colt wiped out the four-year-old record of Trin- 
ket that had stood since 187Q, winning the stakes for four-year-olds, 
trotting the third and fourth heats each in 2:19. This year he has 
been one of the sensations, being in fine form, and entered in all the 
prominent races for five-year-olds. 

At the Gentlemen's Driving Park, New York, June 22d, he won 
the purse of $3,000 for five-year-olds, trotting the second heat in 
2:19^. At Island Park, June 30th, for a special purse of $1,000 to 
beat the five-year-old record 2:18, he won on the third trial, going to 
the quarter in 33 seconds, the half in 1:07^, and the mile in 2:16^. 
This over a heavy track, drawing a driver 7^ lbs. over weight, iscer- 
tainly a wonderful performance ; 2:12 is the mark we set for the little 
horse before the season is over. 

DARBY.— Record 2:163^. 

Brown gelding, 15 hands 1 inch high; foaled in 1871 ; sired by 
Delmonico ; dam, by Glencoe. When a colt he was an ungainly

thing, with a mixed gait and scarcely counted worth his keeping, and 
his owner traded him even-handed to a neighbor for a calf. One day 
he struck a trot that surprised his driver, and with proper weighting 
he soon began to trot fast. He was subsequently sent to New York 
and became the property of Mr. Wallace, and was placed in charge 
of Dan Mace, for handling. 

In 1876 he was brought out and obtained a record of 2:36. In 
1877 this was reduced to 2:25. In 1878 he placed 2:23 to his credit. 
The season of 1879 was his best, and he won every race in which 
he started. At Utica, N. Y.,/ August 22, he dropped the first heat 
to Dick Swiveler, and in the second was laid up too long, Swiveler 
beating him out by a head, in 2:18. The third heat, not being a 
fast scorer, he was given the word a length behind, and the pace was 
so fast that at the half he was still the last horse. Here Mace pulled 
to the outside and sent him for the front, trotting the third quarter in 
32^ seconds — a 2:10 gait — and cutting down the others collared 
Swiveler at the three-quarter pole. The race home was for blood, 
record was no object, but Darby landed a winner, in 2:16^ (his pres- 
ent record), and the remaining heats in 2:20, 2:19^. 

In 1880 he was driven by James Dustin, and in the free-for-all 
class he was obliged to meet St. Julien, and of course could not 
down the king. 

In 1 88 1, owing to the death of his owner, he was not trotted. In 
1882 he was placed in John Murphy's hands for fitting, but his speed 
seemed to have left him. Report says he is now being handled by 
his former driver, Dan Mace, and if he shows in good form will be 
campaigned again this season. During his career he is credited 
with winning first money in thirty-three races with ninety-two 
heats better than 2:30, and in purses, $43,680. 

EDWIN THORNE.— Record 2:16^. 

Chestnut gelding, 16 hands high; foaled in 1874; sired by Thorne- 
dale ; dam, Lady Lightfoot, by Ashland ; owned by Edwin Thorne 
and driven by John E. Turner. This now celebrated horse, when 
quite young, was not considered of much account, and his sale at 
$350 was thought a fair price. In 1880 he came out a very success- 
ful trotter, getting a record at Mystic Park of 2:23*^. In 1881 he 
was kept busy trotting twenty-two races, winning ten and getting 
heats in four others, and at Hartford, Conn., August 25th, beating 
the hitherto invincible Piedmont, placing 2:17^ to his credit. In 
1882 he was entered in the Grand Special class, and after winning 

Vacuum Hoof Oil, a sure cure. 



IO 

the '17 class at Chicago, July 21st, getting his present record, was 
beaten by Clingstone at Cleveland and Buffalo. At Rochester he 
won the first heat, and at Utica downed "The Trotting Machine" in 
straight heats. He also won the Blanchard $10,000 purse for the '17 
class in straight heats. Edwin Thorne has row the credit of win- 
ning first money in twenty-three races, and in purses the snug sum 
of §38,450. 

JEROME EDDY.— Record 2:16^. 

Beautiful cherry bay stallion, 15 hands 3 inches high ; foaled ih 
1875 ; sired by Louis Napoleon, he by Volunteer ; dam, Fanny 
Mapes, by Alexander's Abdallah. This young horse who has placed 
to his credit as a stallion a record second only to that of Smuggler, 
was brought out in 1881, and in his first race at Jackson, Mich., 
June 10th, placed 2:27 to his credit. In 1882 he came out in grand 
form, and at Cleveland, O., won the 23 class in straight heats in 
2:19, 2:18, 2:19. At Buffalo, N. Y., August 3d and 4th, he trotted 
against the stallion Black Cloud for a special purse, one of the finest 
races ever witnessed, requiring six heats to decide it ; Eddy winning 
the first in 2:16^ — (his present record.) He is now owned by 
Henry C. Jewett & Co., of Buffalo, N. Y., having recently been 
purchased by them at $25,000. For the present, at least, he will be 
retired from the turf. The trotting career of this horse has been es- 
pecially brilliant. In two brief campaigns he has reached a speed 
lacking but one second of eclipsing all previous records for entire 
horses. 

CHARLEY FORD.— Record 2:16^. 

Gray gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high ; foaled in 1871 ; sired by 
McKisson's Gray Eagle. This horse began his turf career under the 
name of Billy Basteder, and in 1878 got a record of 2:33)^. In 1879 
this was reduced to 2:20^. In 1880 at Chicago, I1L, July 23d, he 
placed to his credit the present record ; and also at Hartford, Conn., 
August 25th, won a sixth heat in 2:19^, being the fastest sixth heat 
on record. In 188 1 he trotted sixteen races, winning seven ; his best 
heat being 2:18^. In 1882 he was not on the turf. The records 
place him first in thirty-eight races with seventy-seven heats won in 
2:30 and better, and in purses $42,350. He is owned by Jerry Mun- 
roe of Chicago, 111., and is one of the best campaign horses on the 
turf. No race is too long for him, and when the heats are broken 
he is liable to win* in the faster company.

MAJOLICA.— Record 2:17. 

Bay gelding, 15 hands high ; foaled in 1876 ; bred by Mr. Robert 
Bonner ; sired by Startle, he by Hambletonian ; dam, Jessie Kirk, 
by Clark Chief, he by Mambrino Chief. 

This horse, who has become famous in a day, was purchased at 
Mr. Bonner's sale for $450. He was then sent to John Murphy for 
handling, and could trot in about '50. He kept improving until at 
the close of last season, he could show close to *20. His first appear- 
ance in a public race was at the track of the Gentlemen's Driving 
Association, New York, June 21, in the 3:00 class — meeting Judge 
Davis' record 2:22 ; Phallas' record 2:18^, and others. A race 
between three such flyers could not be a gift for either, but Majolica 
won in straight heats, trotting the third heat in the unprecedented 
time of 2:17. At Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 27, in the race 
for the Clay stakes, purse $3,000, he again won after losing the first 
heat to Phallas ; time of race, 2:21^, 2:19^, 2:20, 2:21. Who can 
measure the speed of the coming trotter when we have arrived at the 
period when a horse in his first race, and in the 3:00 class, is forced 
to trot in 2:17, because another equally fast is at his wheel to 
take advantage of the least mistake, and win if the time is a fraction 
of a second slower. We fully endorse the Spirit of the Ti?nes when 
it says, speaking of this performance: u We believe that 2:ioj^ will 
be beaten, that 2:15^ by a stallion will be beaten, that 2:15)^ by a 
double team will be beaten, and as a matter of record; but if we were 
to pick out one performance that promises to remain long unequaled 
it would be this maiden effort of Majolica, eclipsing in a green race 
the fastest record of sixteen years ago.'' 

BLACK CLOUD— Record 2:17^. 

Black stallion, 16 hands high; ioaled in 1869; sired by Ashland 
Chief; dam Old Lady, by Captain Walker, This horse has had a 
varied experience. For several years he was kept in Michigan; 
sometimes standing for mares, and again trotting over country tracks, 
scarcely earning his keeping until in 1880 at Chicago, 111., July 22d, 
he scored a record of 2:21^. In 1881 his best heat was 2:24^. In 
1882 he was one of the sensations of the year. At Chicago, 111., 
July 22d, he obtained his present record, and at Buffalo, N. Y., 
August 3d and 4th, trotted his most prominent race, against Jerome 
Eddy for a special purse of $1,000; losing the first heat, winning the 
second in 2; i8J^; the third and fourth were dead heats in 2:19, 2:20. 
The following day he won the fifth and sixth heats in 2:18^, 2:19^; 
it being horoughout one of the most closely contested races ever

trotted between two horses. He was named for the Blanchard 
$10,000 purse at Boston, Mass., but did not start. 

PIEDMONT.— Record 2:17^. 

Chestnut stallion, 16 hands high; foaled in 1871; sired by Almont; 
dam Mag Ferguson, by Mambrino Chief. As a four-year-old he won 
the "Spirit of the Times" stake, getting a record of 2:30^, which 
was not reduced until 1880, when at Chicago, 111., July 21st, he 
placed 2:21 % to his credit. During 1881 he was one of the most 
prominent horses and largest winners on the turf, winning five out of 
the seven races in which he started. His present record was made 
at Chicago, 111., July 19th of that year, in the $5,000 purse open to 
all stallions, when, after losing the first three heats he won the fourth, 
fifth and sixth in 2:17^, 2:19)^, 2:21. Following this victory he 
won every race in which he started through the Grand Circuit, until 
at Hartford, August 25th, he met for the first time Edwin Thorne. 
Piedmont sold at $50 to $8 for the field, but it was not his day and 
Thorne gave him his first defeat of the year. 

At Beacon Park, Boston, Mass., September 15th, for a purse of 
$10,000, free for all stallions, he was again defeated, winning only 
the second heat in 2:20^. 

In 1882 he was purchased by Gov. Stanford of California, for 
$30,000. For the present he is undoubtedly retired from the turf. 

SO-SO.— Record 2:i i ]}(. 
Brown mare, 16^ hands high, foaled in 1875; sired by George 
Wilkes, dam Little Ida, by Edwin Forest. At two years of age she 
created a great sensation by trotting a mile in 2.31, a record, it was 
then thought, that would long remain unbeaten, but now we have seen 
it eclipsed by ten seconds; and so the trotting world moves on. As a 
three-year-old she did not do much, but in her four-year-old form 
she obtained a record of 2:24 in a race against experienced trotters. 
The following year she was considered of no account, but Capt. Geo. 
N. Stone and W. W. Bair believed that with proper handling So-So was 
destined to be a first-class performer, and her campaign of 188 1 fully 
justified their good opinion. She opened the season at Pittsburgh, 
Pa., getting a record in the third heat of 2:i8X> an d again at Chi- 
cago, July 19th, won the '23 class, taking the first, second and fourth 
heats in 2:19, 2:20^, 2:23. At Hartford, Conn., Aug. 26th, in the 
'15 class, she won two heats in 2:17^ (her present record) 2:17^, 
but lost the race to Charlie Ford. In 1882 she did not reduce her 
record, being obliged to trot in the special class against Clingstone 

West's Carriage Dressing is the best.

and Edwin Thorne, and her warmest admirers did not claim her 
ability to win in such company. She is now owned by Commodore 
Kittson, St. Paul, Minn. 

SANTA CLAUS.— Record 2:17^. 

Dark bay stallion; 15 hands 1% inches high; foaled in 1874; sired 
by Strathmore, dam Lady Thorne, Jr. When three years old he was 
purchased by Col. John W. Conly for $1,600, and sent to California. 
At four years of age he was -placed in charge of O. A. Hickok for 
handling. As a five-year-old he became famous, getting a record at 
Sacramento, September nth, of 2:18, the best on record for that 
age until June 30th, 1883. In 188 1 he was brought east, it being 
the intention to enter him in the Grand Circuit, but he was taken 
sick and did not appear until the $10,000 stallion race at Rochester 
July 4th, and then in no condition for such a race. He won the fifth 
and sixth heats in 2-21, 2:23, and got third money. At Chicago, 
July 19th, he won the second heat in the $5,000 purse free for all 
stallions in 2:17^ (his present record), but lost the race. At Boston, 
Mass., September 15th, in the Balch purse for all stallions, he won 
handily, his first heat being trotted in 2:17^, and at the Gentle- 
men s Driving Park, New York, September 21st, he won the $5,000 
purse free for all stallions in straight heats. In 1882 he was out of 
condition during the early part of the season. At Poughkeepsie, N. 
Y., August 25th, he won the Grand Special class; best time, 2:20. 
He was also in fine form at Hartford, but when it came to the sensa- 
tional race of the season, the Blanchard purse of $10,000 for the '17 
class, he was not in form, being troubled with rheumatism, and only 
secured fourth place. His record places him in company where no 
horse can win except in the pink of condition, and even then he 
must make no mistakes. He has won in purses and stakes over 
$32,000, and been placed first in fourteen races. 

HANNIS.— Record 2:17^. 

Chestnut stallion, 15 hands high; foaled in 1870; sired by Mam - 
brino Pilot, dam Lady Stewart. In 1877, this little horse made his 
first season on the turf, scoring a record of 2:19^. During 1878 
and 1879 he did not reduce these figures; but in 1880, at Hartford, 
Conn., August 26th, he placed to his credit his present record, then 
excelled only by that of Smuggler. 

In 1 88 1, although starting in ten races, he did not win a heat, but 
won his entrance in every race but one, and in that third money. 

As good as there is — Burdock Blood Bitters. 



14 

Last season he was returned to his owner, Mr. Logan, of Baltimore, 
Md., and will probably be retired from the turf. 

During his campaigns he has been placed first in twenty-one races 
with 76 heats won in 2:30 and better, and more than $29,000 in 
purses. 

DICK SWIVELER.— Record 2:18. 

Bay gelding, 16 hands high, foaled in 1870; sired by Walkill Chief, 
dam Madame Swiveler. In 1876, Swiveler made his first appearance 
on the trotting turf, starting in five races, never losing even a heat, 
and closed the season with a record of 2:26. He was then pur- 
chased by his driver, Mr. James Golden, for $8,000. 

In 1877, ne reduced his record to 2:23. In 1878 this was again 
reduced to 2:19. 1879 was his last season on the turf. At Utica, 
N. Y., August 22d, he won the first heat of the '18 class, in 2:20, the 
second in 2:18 (his present record), and the third was only beaten a 
length in 2:16)^. At Hartford, Ccnn., August 29th, he repeated 
his record, winning the '18 class in straight heats, 2:18, 2:18^, 2:20. 
He was then purchased by his present owner, Mr. Frank Work, of 
New York, for $15,000, and another horse for which Mr. Work had 
paid $9,000. 

Great as had been Swiveler's achievements on the turf as a public 
performer, they were destined to be eclipsed after his retirement to 
private road driving. At the Gentlemen's Driving Park, New York, 
July 13th, 1882, to the pole, with Edward, John Murphy drove the 
team to road wagon a mile at the first trial in 2:16^, going to the 
quarter pole in 33^ seconds, and the half in 1:05, thus trotting the 
second quarter at a 2:07 gait. This may well be called the crowning 
achievement of Dick Swiveler's trotting career. 

GREAT EASTERN.— Record 2:18. 

This mammoth trotter, standing over 17 hands high, was foaled in 
1869; sired by Walkill Chief, dam by Reilly's son of Imp. Consterna- 
tion. In 1875, ne began trotting, getting a record of 2:27^. In 
1876 this was reduced to 2:19. In 1877, his best heat in har- 
ness was 2:22^, but at Fleetwood Park, September 22d, he 
trotted to saddle a mile in 2:15^, which remains the best time 
on record for that way of going. 1878 was his last winning season 
on the turf. At Buffalo, N. Y., August 2d, he placed his present re- 
cord to his credit. He is owned and driven by Mr. Charles Green, 
of Babylon, Long Island. 

JUDGE FULLERTON.— Record 2:18. 

Chestnut gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high ; foaled in 1S65 in Or- 
range county, N. Y. ; sired by Edward Everett ; dam unknown. As 



15 

a colt Fullerton was not considered remarkable, and when four years 
old $450 was the price his owner placed on him. In 1870 he com- 
menced to trot fast and was sold for $3,000. Two months later the 
purchaser resold him to Mr. W. M. Humphreys, of New York, for 
$20,000 after showing a half mile in 1 :og^. He was then handled 
by Dan Mace, and in 1871 at Buffalo, N. Y., August 8th, started in 
the '34 class in a field of fifteen, winning the third, fourth and fifth 
heats, best time 2:26^, August nth, at the same place, this was 
reduced to 2:25^, which remained his record for the season. 

In 1872 he won six out of eight races, reducing his record to 
2:21^. 

In 1873 he won twelve out of fourteen races, and in purses nearly 
$28,000, reducing his record to 2:19^. 

In 1874 he trotted in eighteen races, reducing his record to 2:19, 
and winning in purses over $20,000. 

In 1875 at Cleveland, O., July 28th, he placed to his credit his 
present record. 

In 1876, although not winning a race, he was faster than ever, 
trotting second to Goldsmith Maid, three heats separately timed, in 
2.16^, 2:16^, 2:16^, and finishing close up to Smuggler in 2:15^, 
being timed in 2:16. 

In 1877 his best heat was 2:20^ ; 1878 was his last season on the 
turf, and he placed 2:i8j^ to his credit as his best performance. 
During the eight years he was on the turf he was placed first in 32 
races, winning 104 heats in 2:30 and better, and in purses $102,000. 

KATE SPRAGUE.— Record 2:18. 

Brown mare, 15 hands 3 inches high ; foaled in 1875 J sired by 
Gov. Sprague ; dam, Fan, by Lance. In 1880 this speedy mare 
made her first season on the turf, scoring a record of 2:24. 

Id 188 1 at Rochester, N. Y., August 10th, in the '22 class she won 
the second heat in 2:18 (her present record), and the third in 2:23^, 
losing the race to Edwin Thorne. 

In 1882 her record placed her in the special class, and although 
overshadowed by the two principal performers, she showed her speed 
at Chicago in the '17 class, where she finished a close second to Ed- 
win Thorne in 2:16 J4- When right, and driven to win, she can trot 
any good track in 2:17 or 18. 

ROBERT McGREGOR.— Record 2:18. 

Golden chestnut stallion, 16 hands high ; foaled in 1872 ; sired by 
Major Edsall ; dam by Seely's American Star. 

Be comfortable all — Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil. 



16 

In 1879 he dropped into the '30 list, scoring a record of 2:27. 
In 1880 this was reduced to 2:23^ ; 1881 saw him early in the field, 
scoring a record at Point Breeze Park, May 17th, of 2:22, and at 
Chicago, 111., July 19th, in the $5,000 purse for all stallions, winning 
the first heat in 2:18 (his present record), and the third in 2:18^, 
but losing the race to Piedmont, 

At Rochester, N. Y., July 4th, in the $10,000 purse for all stall- 
ions, he started a warm favorite in the betting, winning two heats, 
the best in 2:18^, but losing the race. 

During 1882 he was not on the turf. For the present he is retired 
to the duties of the harem. 



FANNY WITHERSPOON.— Record 2:1; 

Chestnut mare, 16 hands high, foaled in 1874; sired by Almont, 
dam by Gough's Wagner. In 1879, she scored a record of 2:26, 
which in 1880, she reduced to 2:25. In 1881 at Buffalo, N. Y.. 
August 3d, in the '25 class she won the third heat in 2:19^ and the 
fourth in 2:20, but lost the race to Josephus. In 1882, she was en- 
tered through the Grand Circuit in the '19 and '20 classes. At Chi- 
cago she finished lapped on Clingstone in 2:17. At Buffalo she won 
the second and third heats in 2:19^, 2:19, but lost the race to Adele 
Gould. At Poughkeepsie, N. Y., she trotted the best race of her 
career winning the '19 class in straight heats 2:19, 2:18^, 2:18^ (the 
last being her present record). She is now owned by Commodore 
Kittson, of St. Paul, Minn., and was driven last season by " Knap- 
sack " McCarthy. When just right this mare can trot a mile in 
about 2:15, but she is not a reliable performer. 

LADY MAUD.— Record 2:18^. 

Brown mare, 15 % hands high, foaled in 1867; sired by Gen. 
Knox, dam Fanny by Sabek. This mare's turf career began in 1872, 
and in 1875 at Rochester, N. Y., August nth, she scored her present 
record. In 1876 her best heat was 2:22^. During 1877, 2:22 was 
the best time placed to her credit. Although her turf career has ex- 
tended over a number of years she does not seem to have been a 
prominent winner, being credited with first place in but eight races. 

MIDNIGHT.— Record 2:18%. 

Black gelding, 15X hands high ; foaled in 1872 ; sired by Peace- 
maker ; dam by son of Hiram Drew. In 1877 be began trotting, 
getting a record of 2:22j^. In 1878 at Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 3d, he 
won a heat, getting his present record, but losing the race. In 1879 

Suffer no longer — Burdock Blood Bitters. 



17 

his best winning heat was 2:25^ ; 1881 was his most successful sea- 
son he started early in good form, winning nearly all his races be- 
fore the Grand Circuit. At Pittsburg, Pa., in the '19 class he won, 
trotting two heats each in 2:193^, and again at Buffalo won the '15 
class, trotting one heat in 2:19. During the season he won first 
money in six races and heats in four others. He is now owned by 
Mr. Rockafeller of New York, and is used for road driving; either 
single or to the pole, he is one of the fastest horses in the Metrop- 
olis. 

MONROE CHIEF.— Record 2:i8X- 

Brown stallion, 15 ^ hands high ; foaled in 1871 ; sired by Jim 
Monroe ; dam by Bay Chief. Previous to 1877 this horse had no 
better record than 2:35, but in that year he placed 2:25 to his credit. 
In 1878, 2:26^ was his fastest heat. In 1879 he just equaled his 
previous record. In 1880 he was sold for $5,000, and it proved a 
very profitable investment, as he was in fine form and won himself 
out and a handsome surplus beside. In that year at Chicago, 111., 
July 24th, he got his present record. Previous to starting in 1881 he 
was resold for $18,000, but his campaign of that season proved a 
sad disappointment, and he was not credited with winning a heat. 
In 1882 at Lexington, Ky., Oct. 16, he won a most stubbornly con- 
tested race of six heats from Rosa Wilkes, winning the first in 
2:19^2, trotting the fourth a dead heat, and winning the fifth and 
sixth in 2:20^, 2:21^. At the same place Oct. 21, against time, to 
beat the best record for two miles — 4:48^ — he won, time 4:46. 
These two performances alone stamp him as one of the greatest 
horses on the turf, and we can easily understand the enthusiasm of 
the spectators of his grand finishes in 1880, when the familiar shout 
was so often heard, " See Monroe Chief come." 

PHALLAS.— Record 2:18^. 

Bay stallion, foaled in 1877, sired bv Dictator (a full brother of 
Dexter) dam by Clark Chief, owned ^y Hon. J. I. Case, of Racine, 
Wis. The first genuine sensation of this year in the trotting world 
was occasioned by this young horse in the race for the '34 class at 
Cleveland, O., June 5th and 6th, taking five heats to decide it, Phal- 
las winning the third, fourth and fifth, the latter in the astonishing 
time of 2:18^, and this the first race he ever trotted. As he is en- 
tered in all the slow classes of the early prominent meetings his 
career will be watched with much interest. We are informed that 
his owner refused $25,000 for him after this performance. At Fleet- 
Vacuum Harness Oil has no equal.

Albany, N. Y., June 27th, in the race for the Clay stake, 3:00 class, 
purse $3,000, he won the first heat in 2:21 %, getting second money. 

ROSA WILKES.— Record 2:18^. 

Bay mare, 15 hands 3 inches high, sired by George Wilkes, dam 
by Mambrino Patchen. In 1881, this mare began the campaign 
with a record of 2:41^, and starting in eleven races won first money 
in five and heats in two others, reducing her record at Lexing- 
ton, Ky., October 5th to 2:25^. In 1882, at Chicago, 111., July 
18th, she won the '25 class in straight heats; time 2:20^, 2:18^, 
2:20^. At Cleveland, O., July 28th, she won the '20 class in 
straight heats, time 2:18^, 2:18^, 2:iS}4 (the last being her present 
record). She now has placed to her credit first position in twenty- 
one races and her winnings in purses have been over $13,000. She 
was recently sold for $11,000 — certainly a very moderate price for a 
young mare that can trot a mile handy in 2:16 or '17. Her career 
this season will be w T atched with great interest as she is entered in 
all the prominent races for her class and will meet very fast com- 
pany. 

J. B. THOMAS.— Record 2:i8X- 

Bay gelding, 15 hands high ; sired by Sterling ; dam by Defiance. 
In 1 88 1 he began trotting fast. Beginning with a record of 2:34^, 
he started in eight races, winning three and heats in three others. 
His record was made at Chicago, 111, July 25th, in the '30 class, 
where he was second to Troubadour, who crossed the score on a run, 
being set back, and the heat given to Thomas, whose actual time 
was 2:18^. In 1882 he was entered in the Grand Special class in 
the Grand Circuit, but the company was too fast for him. His best 
winning heat for the season was 2:22^. He is owned by M. M. 
Hedges, who has wintered him in the South, and reports him in fine 
shape, and liable to trot very fast this season. 

WILLIAM H.— Record 2:18^. 

Bay gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high; foaled in 1875; sired by 
Young Wilkes ; dam by Daniel Webster. In 1879, as a four-year- 
old he was brought out by Mr. Saunders of Clyde, N. Y., and scored 
a record of 2:25^. In 1880 this was reduced to 2:24. 1881 was 
his most successful season ; starting in eighteen races he won 
fifteen, reducing his record to 2:20^. At Chicago, 111., July 19th, 

Sore necks speedily cured by using " Blue Eagle " Ointment.

1882, in the '21 class he won the second heat, reducing his record to 
its present figure. He is owned by W. J. Gordon of Cleveland, O. 

CLEORA.— Record 2:18^. 

Black mare, 15 hands 2. l / 2 inches high, sired by Menelaus, dam 
Thornleaf by Mambrino Patchen. At Chicago, 111., September 22d, 
1882, in the '33 class she won in straight heats, time 2:21^, 2:21^, 
2:i8|^, and was immediately purchased at $15,000 by Mr. Wm. 
Rockafeller, of New York. She is a mare of very even, fine dis- 
position, excellent to the pole, and a prize indeed for road driving. 
While in her present owner's hands it is not probable she will be 
campaigned. 

NUTWOOD.— Record 2:18^. 

Chestnut stallion, foaled in 1870, sired by Belmont, (sire of 
Wedgewood) dam Miss Russell (dam of Maud S). The breeding 
of this horse shows that nothing but being deprived of legs could 
prevent his being a trotter. In 1877 he entered the '30 list, reduc- 
ing his record from 2:32^ to 2:23^. In 1878 he chipped off the 
half second leaving it 2:23. 1879 was his last season on the turf. 
At Stockton, Cal., November 27, he placed to his credit his present 
record. He is now in the stud, and both his breeding and record 
make him one of the most desirable horses in the country. 

PATCHEN.— Record 2:18^. 

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1870 ; sired by Kentucky Hunter ; 
dam by Scott's Hiatoga. In 1877 he began trotting under the name 
of Orwell Boy, his best record at the close of 1878 being 2:32. In 
1879, under his present name, he scored a record of 2:25. In 1880 
he was a very fast horse, and driven by John Murphy ; scored his 
present record at Hartford, Conn., Aug. 28th. At Prospect Park, 
Oct. 15th, in the '19 class, he trotted the third heat — a dead heat — 
with Driver in 2:19^, and won the fourth in 2:21^. Without be- 
ing started in many prominent races he has been driven to this fast 
record, and apparently spoiled his chances for a very brilliant 
career. 

ADELE GOULD.— Record 2:19. 

Chestnut mare, 15 hands high; foaled in 1876; sired by Jay Gould; 
dam, Emeline, by H. B. Patchen ; owned by E. W. Conover. She 
commenced the season of 1882 with a record of 2:34*^, it being evi- 
dently the intention of her managers to keep her back for the slow 
classes in the Grand Circuit. At Pittsburgh, Pa., July 13th, in the

'33 class her speed was so apparent in the second heat, where she 
was pulled double at the wire, that the judges took out her driver 
and put up Dave Muckle, who won the next three heats handily in 
2:21, 2:23^, 2:24. At Cleveland, O., in the '21 class, she won, best 
time, 2:21^. At Buffalo, N. Y., in the '20 class, so fast were the 
entries opposed to her that she sold in the field. Annie W. won the 
first heat in 2:20 ; Fanny Witherspoon the second and third in 
2:19^, 2:19. The fourth heat Adele was never headed, winning in 
2:19 (her present record), and the fifth and sixth in 2:20^, 2:23^. 
Just how fast this mare can trot probably no one but her owner 
knows. She has certainly had speed enough to win whenever she 
was asked to do so. 

ALBEMARLE.— Record 2:19. 

Gray gelding, 16 hands high ; foaled in 1870 ; sired by Tom Hun- 
ter ; dam by Tom Crowder. In 1876 he made his first appearance 
on the turf, scoring a record of 2:20, the best for any green horse 
that season. In 1877, 2:23 was his best performance ; 1878 was his 
last winning season. At Hartford, Conn., August 23d, he scored 
his present record. In his three campaigns he is credited with win- 
ning first money in eight races, and in purses $11,000. He is owned 
by Mr. Robinson of Rochester, N. Y., and is used for road driving. 

ALLEY.— Record 2:19. 

Bay gelding, 15^ hands high, foaled in 1869, sired by Volunteer; 
dam by New York Black Hawk. In 1875 this well-known cam- 
paigner began his trotting career and scored a record of 2:35. In 
1876 this was reduced to 2:28^. In 1877 he put 2:24 to his credit. 
In 1878, he added one-half second to his best previous effort, scoring 
2:24^ as his best heat for that year. In 1879, at Chicago, 111., 
July 25th, he obtained his present record. He has won first position 
in twenty- four races, with forty-six heats in 2:30 and better, and in 
purses $21,000. 

EDWARD.— Record 2:19. 

Chestnut gelding, foaled in 1872, sired by Fiske's Hambletonian 
Star, dam by Magna Charta. In 1876, he began trotting, getting a 
record of 2:41. In 1877 he reduced this to 2:30. 1878 was his last 
season on the turf; at Providence, R. I., September 3d, he scored his 
present record. But this mark, fast as it is, was no measure of his 
speed. He is owned by Mr. Frank Work, of New York, who 
drives him to the pole with Dick Swiveler and they are probably the 

Try " Blue Eagle" Ointment on sore backs, etc.

fastest team now driven. Their recent performance is fully described 
in the sketch of his mate. 

FRANCE'S ALEXANDER.— Record 2:19. 

Black stallion, 16 hands high; foaled in 1875; sired by Ben 
Patchen: dam by Canada Jack. At four years of age he scored a 
record of 2:30}^, which in 1880 he reduced to 2:21^. In 1881 he 
was a very prominent winner, starting early, trotting himself by easy 
races into fine condition. At Rochester, N. Y., July 4th, in the 
$10,000 purse open to all stallions, he won the first heat in 2:19 
(his present record) the fourth in 2:19^ and the seventh in 2:25^, 
and was second in every heat he did not win — showing that while in 
turn all the others might be laying up for a heat or two he was being 
driven to win every time. The track was heavy from rain and 
certainly three or four seconds slow. It was throughout one of the 
most closely contested races ever trotted. In 1882 after the death 
of George Wilkes, Alexander took his place in the stud. He is being 
campaigned this year and if nothing befall's him is liable to lower his 
record before the close of the season. 

GRAVES.— Record 2:19. 

Chestnut gelding, foaled in 1872; sired by Whipple's Hambleton- 
ian; dam Rose Austin. In 1878 he made his first season on the turf, 
scoring a record of 2:22^. In 1879 at Stockton, Cal., Sept. 20th, 
he obtained his present record. 

KITTY BATES.— Record 2:19. 

Gray mare, foaled in 1869; sired by Loder's Cloud Mambrino; 
dam Pop-Corn (a pacer). In 1878 she dropped into the '30 list, 
reducing her record from 2:40 to 2:29. In 1879 this was again cut 
down to 2:23^. In 1880 at Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 6th in the '23 
class she won the first heat getting her present record, but only get- 
ting fourth position in the race. Since then she has not been a 
prominent performer. 

MINNIE R.— Record 2:19. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1874; sired by J. C. Breckenridge; dam by 
Exchequer. In 1880 she made her appearance scoring a record of 
2:24. In 1881 she was kept busy trotting in fifteen races, winning 
three and heats in two others, reducing her record to 2:23. She 
opened the season of 1882 at Chicago, 111., where on July 17th, she 
won the '23 class, winning the first heat in 2:19 (her present record)

and the third and fourth in 2:19^, 2:20; she was then purchased by 
Commodore Kittson for $10,000. In the Grand Special class through 
the Grand Circuit she had to meet company too fast for her and was 
not a winner. 

WEDGEWOOD.— Record 2:19. 

Brown stallion, 15 hands 3 inches high, foaled in 1871, sired by 
Belmont, dam Woodbine. He first appeared on the turf at Cyn- 
thiana, Ky., in 1877, winning his first race in 2:39^ 2 '-3^%^ 2 '-3%%, 
but he was trialed that year once in 2:25 and again in 2:23^. Tn 
1878 he became the property of Mr. R. B. Conklin and during his 
campaign was driven by John Splann. In 1879 he started in six 
races, winning* two, reducing his record to 2:23. In 1880 he made 
one of the most brilliant campaigns on record. He started in nine- 
teen races, winning seven in succession, and with one exception get- 
ting third position or better in all the others. At Hartford, Conn., 
August 28th, he obtained his present record. In 1881, he trotted 
twenty-four races, winning first money in seven and it was a singular 
feature of this campaign that whenever he won a heat he won the 
race. His best heat for this season was 2:19^. In 1882 he was 
retired from the turf and for the present at least will remain in the 
stud. He is now owned by W. P. Balch. of Boston. 



ALDINE.— Record 2:i9X- 

Brown mare; foaled in 1873; sired by Almont ; dam, Mother 
Hubbard. In 1878 she dropped into the '30 list, reducing her record 
from 2:33^ to 2:28^. These figures were not reduced until 188 1, 
when at Louisville, Ky., Sept. 27th, she placed 2:26/4^ to her credit. 
In 1882 she became a prominent winner. At Cleveland, O., July 
27th, she won the '26 class, taking the third, fourth and fifth heats ; 
time, 2:20^, 2:19^, 2:21. At Buffalo she won in straight heats in 
2:21, 2:19^, 2:21. At Rochester she won — best time 2:21 — and 
at Hartford, Conn. Aug. 31, reduced her record to its present figure. 
She is now owned by W. H. Vanderbilt, and driven to the pole with 
Early Rose, trotted the Hartford track in 2:165^. but the time does 
not stand as a technical record. At Fleetwood Park, New York, 
June 15th, 1883, to the pole with Maud S., driven by Wm. H. Van- 
derbilt, the team trotted a mile in 2:15^, but this also is not a record. 

CROXIE.— Record 2H9X. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1872 ; sired by Clark Chief ; dam by Imp. 
Young Priam. In 1877 this mare was credited with a record of 

West's Carriage Dressing has a world-wide reputation.

2:30 !^, and in 1878 at Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 2d, placed to her credit 
her present record. In 1882 she trotted a number of races, her best 
one being at Chicago, 111., July 22d, where in a match purse she de- 
feated a good field; best time 2:22j^ 

JOE BUNKER.— Record 2:iqX. 

Gray gelding, 16 hands high, foaled in 1874, sired by George 
Wilkes, dam by Old American Star. In 1880 he was brought out 
and at Louisville, Ky., October 6th, scored a record of 2:26 in the 
fifth heat. During 188 1 he did not do well, but in 1882 he was 
very fast. At Cleveland, O., September 7th, he won the race for 
the '25 class, best time 2:21^. At Lexington, Ky., October 11, he 
lowered his record to 2:20^, which remained his record at the open- 
ing of the campaign for 1883. This season he has been faster than 
ever. At Louisville, Ky., May 8th, he won the purse for the '19 
class, best time 2:21^. At Cleveland, O., June 6th, he won the 
same class, in straight heats, time 2:20^, 2:20^, 2:21. At Fleet- 
wood Park, New York, June 21st, he won the race for the '21 class, 
taking the first heat in 2:19%, the second in 2:20 and the fourth in 
2:i 9 X. 

KEENE JIM.— Record 2:19^. 

Roan gelding, foaled in 1873, sired by Lookout, dam Laura Fair. 
In 1877 ne dropped into the '30 list, reducing his record from 2:34^ 
to 2:24^. This remained his best record until 1880. When at 
Buffalo, N. Y., August 7th, in the '25 class, he won the first heat in 
2:19^, (his present record). In 1881 he trotted in four races, win- 
ning one and heats in another, just equaling his previous record* 
In 1882 he was not campaigned. He is now owned by Mr. Robert 
Bonner. 



PARANA.— Record 2:i9X. 

Bay mare, 15^ hands high, foaled in 1874, sired by Mambrino 
Hamiltonian, dam Belle of Cayuga. In 1880, she was one of the 
sensational trotters of the season. Beginning with a record of 2:31 
she was entered through the Grand Circuit in the '30 class, winning 
every time she started. Her record was made in that year at Beacon 
Park, Boston, Mass., September 7th. In 1881 she went amiss. She 
began the season of '82 in fine form and in her first race won 
the first heat in 2:20. She was named and trotted in the $10,000 
Blanchard purse at Boston, Mass., September 15th, but only 
secured sixth position. She is owned by Wesley P. Balch, of Bos- 
ton, Mass.

DRIVER..— Record 2:19^. 

Bay gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high ; foaled in 1870 ; sired by 
Volunteer ; dam by American Star. Few horses are better known 
than this game son of Volunteer, who in the past six years has trot- 
ted more races than any other horse on the turf. In 1877 he started 
in fourteen races, reducing his record from 2:30^ to 2:25. In 1878 
he trotted twenty-seven races, again reducing his record to 2:24. 
1879 found him equally busy, trotting the same number of races and 
reducing his record to 2:20^. In 1880 he was given the word 
twenty-four times, and at Prospect Park, Oct. 15th, made a dead 
heat with Patchen, the time being his present record. In 188 1 he 
started in twenty-two races without reducing his record. In 1882 
his fastest heat was 2:21^. He has won during his turf career 
forty-eight races, and in purses the snug sum of $45,000. 

FOREST PATCHEN.— Record 2:19^. 

Brown gelding ; sired by King Patchen ; dam by Flying Cloud. 
He began the season of 1881 with a record of 3:00, and starting in 
fourteen races won six, reducing his record to 2:24^. In 1882 he 
was very fast. At Mystic Park, Boston, Mass., in the race for the 
'20 class he trotted the fourth heat — a dead heat — with J. P. Morris, 
reducing his record to 2:20^. This remained his record at the open- 
ing of the season for 1883. At Hartford, Conn., June 14th, he won 
the race for the '20 class after a prolonged struggle of seven heats, 
winning the third, fourth and seventh, his time being 2:19^, 2:22, 
2:29. 

MOOSE.— Record 2:19^. 

Bay gelding, 16 hands high; foaled in 1869; sired by the Wash- 
burn Horse; dam the Morrissey mare by Imp. Trustee. Although 
trotting in 1876, 1877 and 1878 it was not until 1879 that he dropped 
into the '30 list. At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 5th, in the the '31 class 
he won in straight heats, 2:24, 2:23, 2:25^. At Utica, N. Y., Aug. 
19th, in the '30 class he again won, best time 2:20^, which 
remained his best record for that year. In 1880 at Rochester, N. 
Y., Aug. 10th, in the '21 class he won the first heat in 2:19^ (his 
present record) but lost the race to Piedmont. In 1881 his best win- 
ning heat was 2:203^. He is credited with winning first money in 
nineteen races and in purses over $12,000. 

ROMERO.— Record 2:19^. 

Gray stallion, foaled in 1877; sired by A. W. Richmond; dam 
Gretchen. In 1881 this fine horse began trotting, and starting in 
four races won three, getting a record at Oakland, Cal., Sept, 16th, 



25 

of 2:22^. - In 1882 at Stockton, Cal., Sept. 22d, he scored his pres- 
ent record. He is now in the hands of John Goldsmith and will 
be campaigned in his class this season. 

THOMAS L. YOUNG.— Record 2:19^. 

Chestnut gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high; foaled in 1865; sired by 
Well's Yellow Jacket; dam'a pacing mare. Although this horse has 
been very fast he has never been a prominent winner. In 1874 he 
was entered through the Grand Circuit. At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 
6th, he won the second heat in the '29 class in 2:25^, and at 
Springfield. Mass., Aug. 20th, he won the second and third heats in 
the '26 in 2:24^, 2:25. In 1875 at Fleetwood Park, Oct. 22d, he 
obtained his present record. This mark seems to have out-classed 
him. In 1879 we nnc ^ n ^ m credited wkh winning in 2:28^, and in 
1880 in 2:29 ; after this Mr. W. C. France owned him for some 
time and drove him to the pole on the road He has since been 
called Winkie, and is being used fur road driving. 

TROUBADOUR.— Record 2:19^. 

Black gelding, 16 hands high ; foaled in 1874; sired by Revenge; 
dam, Illinois Maid. The trotting career of this horse, though short, 
has been brilliant. In 1881 he commenced with a record of 2:31^, 
and starting in eleven races, won six and heats in three others. At 
Buffalo, N, Y., Aug. 3d, in the '27 class, he won the second, third 
and fourth heats in 2:19^ (his present record), 2:22^, 2:23^. At 
Hartford, Conn., Aug. 24th, in the '27 class he won the first heat in 
2:2oJ^. In the second he cast a shoe and narrowly escaped being 
distanced. In the third he was disabled by the giving way of one of 
the tendons of his off hind foot, necessitating his withdrawal. He 
has not since been able to stand the preparation for trotting, but it is 
now hoped he has recovered and he is being carefully handled. 

VON ARNIM.— Record 2:19^. 

Bay stallion; foaled in 1874 ; sired by Sentinel; dam, Mary 
Short, by Blood's Black Hawk. In 1879 this horse was brought out, 
and at Louisville, Ky., July 10th, scored a record of 2:22. In 1880 
his fastest heat was 2:23. In 1881 2:28^ was his best credit. In 
1882 he was owned by Commodore Kittson, and driven by Mc- 
Carthy, was a very fast horse. At Chicago, 111., July 17, he won the 
$5,000 purse open to all stallions in straight heats; time 2:20, 2:20^, 
2:20, and at Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 12th, won tlie 20 class in 

See " Blue Eagle " Ointment advertisement on page 39. 



26 

straight heats, scoring his present record in the third* heat. This 
horse is a rare prize, either for breeding or turf purposes. 

WILL CODY.— Record 2:19^. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1873; sired by Blue Bull; dam by America 11 
Eclipse. In 1879 ne dropped into the '30 list, scoring a record o* 
2:223^. In i88lfrat Chicago, 111., July 23d, he gained his present 
record. In 1881 he started in seventeen races, winning five, his best 
credit for this season being 2:253^. In 1882 2:27^ was his best 
winning time. During his turf career he has won twenty races and 
in purses nearly $15,000. 

CATCHFLY.— Record 2:193/. 

Brown mare, 15^ hands high; foaled in 1876; sired by Adminis- 
trator; dam by Almont. In 1880 she was started without a record 
closing the season with 2:30 to her credit. In 1882 this was reduced 
to 2:27^. Although showing trials very fast it was not until this 
season that she became reliable — or rather that a driver succeeded in 
overcoming her pecularities. At Maysville, Ky., May 15th, she won 
the race for the '25 class in straight heats; time 2:28^, 2:22^, 2:22. 
At Cincinnati, O., May 24th, she won the same class, best time 
2:22 3/. At Milwaukee, Wis., June 15th, she won the free-for-all 
beating Monroe Chief and Foxie V. ; time 2:20 j^, 2:193/, 2:27. Her 
career from this time will be eagerly watched as she is now placed 
in fast company, and just how fast she can trot when on her good 
behavior is still an open question. 

DAISY DALE.— Record 2:193/. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1872; sired by Thornedale; dam Daisy by 
Burr's Washington. In 1878 she made her first season on the turf, 
getting a record of 2:29^. In 1879 tn * s was -educed to 2:28. In 
1880 she was a great mare. At' Cleveland, O., July 27th, she placed 
her present record to her credit. In 188 1 she was not campaigned. 
In 1882 her best credit was 2:27^. She is owned by Mr. Edwin 
Thorne and during her successful campaign was driven by John E. 
Turner. 

DECK WRIGHT.— Record 2:193/. 

Bay gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high, foaled in 1870, sired by the 
Hinsdale horse. In 1877 this horse made his first season on the 
turf, scoring a record of 2:27. In 1878 this v/as reduced to 2:24^. 
In 1879 tri i s was again lowered to 2:22^. In 1880, at Buffalo, N. 

A terror to quacks — Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil. 



2 7 

Y., August 6th, in the '23 class he won the second licat in 2:193/ 
(his present record). In 1881 his best credit was 2:21. In 1882, 
2.22 was his fastest winning heat. During this season he has been 
very successful, winning nearly every race in which he has started. 
He is a very handy breaker, which gives him a great advantage in a 
long, hard fought race. 

DR. NORMAN.— Record 2:193/. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1877, sired Col. Moore, dam unknown. 
This fine young horse made his first appearance on the trotting turf 
last season. At Detroit, Mich., June 6th, in the '50 class, he won 
in straight heats, time 2:303/, 2:31, 2:36, and at Ionia, Mich., July 
5th, won the '30 class in straight heats, best time 2:263/. At Cleve- 
land, O., September 7th, in the '25,class, he won the first two heats, 
time 2:193/ (his present record), 2;2o but lost the race to Joe Bunker, 
He was purchased at this time by Gen. D. W. Caldwell for $7,000. 
Should no mishap befall him he is destined to be a great horse. 

JOHN S. CLARK.— Record 2:193,/, 

Chestnut gelding, 16 hands high; foaled in 1873 ; sired by Thomas 
Jefferson , dam by Scott's Hiatoga. When four years old this colt 
received his first lessons in trotting, his first trial being one-half mile 
in 1:30. The same year (1877), at Point Breeze Park, Nov. 8th, he 
won the '50 class; best time 2:36. In 1879 ne capped into the '30 
list, reducing his record from 2:33 to 2:30. In 18S0 he repeated his 
record. In 1881 at Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 12th, in the '25 class he 
won in straight heats ; time 25193/ (his present record), 2:21^, 
2:223/. This horse, by judicious management, has become one of 
the fastest on the turf. He is a very hard horse to drive, as when 
he goes to a break he is at times almost unmanageable. 

JOSEPHUS.— Record 2:193/. 

Chestnut gelding ; foaled in 1873 5 sired by Green's Bashaw ; dam, 
the Simmons mare. In 1880 he entered the '30 list, reducing his 
record from 2:35 to 2:25, In 1881, at Buffalo, N. Y., August 6th, 
he won the '25 class, taking the first, second and fifth heats; time 2:20, 
2:203/, 2:2o3/. At Hartford, Conn., Aug. 26th, in the '25 class, he 
won the first two heats in 2:193/ (his present record), 2:20, but lost 
the race to Pickard. In 1882 he was not in good form, his best 
credit for the year being 2:26. This horse has trotted trials in 2:17^, 
and when properly handled can trot a good track in 2.17 or 
'18. Being now just in his prime, and in his races this season hav-

ing shown himself in fine form, he must be counted when he starts 
a probable winner. 

ANNIE W.— Record 2:20. 

Chestnut mare 16 hands high; foaled in 1876; sired by McEwen's 
Almont, Jr.; dam Mary M. This now celebrated mare began the 
season of 1881 with a record of 2:41. At Dayton, O., June 15th, 
she reduced it to 2:28. At Cleveland, O., July 27th. in the '27 class 
she won in straight heats, getting her present record. She was very 
successful throughout the entire season, winning thirteen races out of 
sixteen starts, and placing her name prominently before the public, 
$16,000 was the price her owners placed on her and several promi- 
nent gentlemen were reported at different times as negotiating for 
her purchase. 1882 did not fulfill the expectations of her friends; 
although a very fast mare it was evident her record was one she 
might carry throughout her turf career. At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 
4th, in the '20 class she repeated her record in the first heat, but did 
not win the race. She has been purchased by a wealthy New York 
gentleman for road driving at $8,000. 

BELLE BRASFIELD .— Record 2:20. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1868, sired by Viley's Cripple; dam Sallie 
Chorister. This mare commenced her turf career in 1873, and in 
1875 had reduced her record to 2:25^. In 1876 this was reduced to 
2:25. In 1878 she again chipped off her record leaving it 2:23)^. 
In 1879, at Buffalo, N. Y., August 5th, in the '21 class, she won the 
first and second heats, each in 2:20 (her present record), but lost the 
race to Orange Girl. Although appearing in 1880 and '8i she was 
not prominent. She is now performing the duties of a matron. 

CAPTAIN EMMONS.— Record 2:20. 

Chestnut gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high, foaled in 187 1, sired by 
Continental, dam the Emmons mare. In 1878 he was one of the 
new-comers to the turf, scoring a record of 2:231^. In 1879 ne re ~ 
duced this to 2:22. In 1880, at Buffalo, N. Y., August 3d, in the 
'21 class, he won the first heat, getting his present record. In 1881 
he was not campaigned. During the season of '82 his best winning 
heat was 2:22. This season he is in fine form, having won at Fleet- 
wood Park, New York, June 20th, the race for the '19 class, trotting

ELAINE.— Record 2:20. 

Brown mare, foaled in 1874; sired by Messenger Duroc; dam 
Green Mountain Maid. This mare is one of a trotting family, her 
full sister, Dame Trot, having a record of 2:22, and her full brother, 
Prospero, had at his death a record of 2:20. At three years of age 
Elaine obtained a record of 2:28 thus stamping her at once as a colt 
of rare promise. In 1878 she reduced this to 2:24^. In 1880 at 
San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 13th, in a match against Santa Claus she 
won the first heat in 2:20 (her present record) and the third in 2:20^, 
but lost the race. At one time she was credited with both the best 
three and four-year-old records, but new comers have since wiped out 
the figures by several seconds. She is now owned we believe by 
Gov. Stanford, of California. 

ETTA JONES.— Record 2:20. 

Brown bay mare, 15 hands 3 inches high; sired by Parish's Pilot; 
dam by Davy Crocket. This mare comes from a pacing family and 
is a converted pacer. She began the season of 1879 wltn a record of 
2 -33/^5 and at Cleveland, O., July 29th won the '30 class in straight 
heats; time 2:22^, 2:23^, 2:22. At Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 12th, 
she again won the .'30 class, taking the first heat in 2:20 (her present 
record) the second in 2:21^ and the fourth in 2:20^. In 1880 she 
scored 2:20^ as her best credit. Since then she has not appeared 
as a prominent performer. 

HUMBOLDT.— Record 2:20. 

Bay gelding, 16 hands 2 inches high, foaled in 1875, sired by 
Stocking Chief, dam by Parish's Pilot. In 188 1, driven by his part 
owner, Mr. Chas. Green, he began the season with a record of 
2 -35/^ and at Cleveland, O., July 20th, won the '30 class, taking the 
second, third and fifth heats in 2:253^, 2:26^, 2:25^. At Roches- 
ter, N. Y., August 9th, in the '30 class, he won the fourth, 
fifth and sixth heats; time in 2:25^, 2:24^, 2:29. At Utica, N. 
Y., August 1 6th, he again won the '30 class after a prolonged 
struggle of seven heats, winning the first, making a dead heat in the 
second, and winning the sixth and seventh. At Hartford, Conn., 
August 23d, in the '30 class he trotted the best race of his career, 
winning the first, second and fourth heats, the latter in the very fast 
time of 2:20 (his present record). He also won the '27 class on the 
following day. In 1882 he did not perform as well, his best credit 
for the year being 2:24. When this horse will keep level few can 
head him. but he is not always a reliable performer.

JOHN H.— Record 2:20. 

Bay gelding ; foaled in 1866 ; sired by Blumberg's Black Bashaw. 
In 1872 he began his turf career, and in 1875 had obtained a record 
of 2:23. In 1876 this was reduced to 2:21 */£. In 1877 he knocked 
off the half second, leaving it 2:21. In 1878 at Hartford, Conn., 
August 23d, he gained his present record. Since then, although 
campaigned, he has not been a prominent winner, his record putting 
him in "hot" company. During his career of eleven years he has 
been placed first in twenty-three races, winning in purses, premiums, 
etc., $21,550. He has proved a fine pole horse, trotting with Lady 
Martin to a road wagon a mile in 2:23^, and with a running mate he 
has trotted trials in 2:16. 

MAY QUEEN.— Record 2:20. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1868; sired by Alexander's Norman; dam, 
Jennie. In 1874 this mare began her turf career under the name of 
Nashville Girl. In 1875 at Utica, N. Y., August 17th, she obtained 
her present record ; 1876 was her last season on the turf, her best 
credit for that year being 2:25 }/ 2 . Although winning but seven races 
during her trotting career, she passed $21,500 to the right side of her 
owner's cash account. 

NELLIE R.— Record 2:20. 

Chestnut mare ; sired by Gen. McClellan, Jr. ; dam, unknown. 
She began the season of 1882 without a record. At Oakland, Cal., 
September 5th, in the '30 class she won two heats ; the third and 
fifth in 2:23^, 2:263^, and at Stockton, Cal.. September 23d, scored 
her present record. It is within easy memory of all readers when a 
young horse to come out and in the first campaign score such a record 
would be the sensation of a season. Now nothing is so fast as to be 
more than a passing wonder. 

ORANGE GIRL.— Record 2:20. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1871; sired by Rysdyk's Hambletonian; dam 
Dolly Mills. In 1877 this mare made her first season on the turf, 
getting a record of 2:283^. In 1878 this was reduced to 2:233^. In 
1879 sne a g am reduced' the figures to 2:20^. In 1880 at Columbus, 
O., July 3d, she obtained her present record, 

AMY.— Record 2:2oX- 

Bay mare, foaled in 1865; sired by Volunteer, dam Belle Brandon. 
In 1875 she came out getting a record of 2:22^. This was not 
reduced until in 1879 when at Hartford, Conn., June 25th, she 
obtained her present record.

BRANDY BOY.— Record 2:20%. 

Bay gelding, 16 hands high, foaled in 1876; sired by Admiral 
Patchen. He commenced the season of 1882 with a record of 2:31. 
At Hartford, Conn., June 22d, he won the first two heats, lost the 
third, and in the fourth made a dead heat, the time being his present 
record. This season he has won nearly every race in which he has 
started, and is evidently in fine shape. At Hartford, Conn., June 
14th, in the '20 class, he won two heats in 2:20^, 2:21, getting third 
money. 

BUZZ MEDIUM.— Record 2:20^. 

Brown mare, 15 hands high, foaled in 1873, sired by Happy 
Medium, dam by Nonpareil. This little mare began the season of 

1881 with a record of 2:37^ and trotting in seven races won five, re- 
ducing her record to 2:23. In 1882, at Pittsburgh, Pa., July nth, 
she won the '23 class, getting her present record in the first heat, 
winning the second in the same time and the third in 2:22. When 
just right she can probably trot a good track in about 2:16 or '17 and 
as her record still leaves her in the '21 class, has she a brilliant future 
before her. 

CAPTAIN LEWIS.— Record 2:20^. 

The ' ' Plow-horse, " as he is often called, is a chestnut gelding, 
16 hands high, foaled in 1874, sired by Spink, dam Lady Jones. In 

1882 at Lyons, N. Y., June 7th, he trotted his first race, win- 
ning the 3:00 class, time 2:35, 2:23, 2:35^. His career from this 
time was most remarkable. He was then owned by Mr. A. H. 
Towar, of Lyons, N. Y., who purchased him for $300 from a farmer 
who had used him during the spring at work on his farm. Mr. 
Towar sold him shortly after this to Mr. B. L. Sheldon, of Roches- 
ter, N. Y., for $6,000, and he was placed in competent hands for 
training. At Buffalo, N. Y., August 3d, he won the '33 class in 
straight heats, time 2:22^(, 2:25*4, 2:22^. At Utica, N. Y., he 
repeated his victory in the same class, best time 2:24*4. At Spring- 
field, Mass., September 6th, he obtained his present record. This 
horse was decidedly the sensation of the year. Since he started he 
has never lost a race and never been forced to extend himself, what 
he will do when placed in faster company remains to be seen. 
When just to an edge he can probably trot in about 2:15^ and being 
entered at Chicago and through the Grand Circuit in the '21 class 
where he will meet the best horses in the country, his career this 
season will be watched with much interest.

CLEMMIE G.— Record 2:20>f. 

Chestnut mare, foaled in 1877; sired by Magic; dam by Berkley's 
Ned Forrest. At three years of age she obtained a record of 2:36,

and at Hartford, Conn., June 22, obtained her present record in a 
dead heat with Brandy Boy. 

EARLY ROSE.— Record 2.20^. 

Brown mare, 15^ hands high ; sired by Almont ; dam, Jennie by 
Flying Cloud- In 1881 she dropped into the '30 list, reducing her 
record from 2:36 to 2:25^. In 1S82 she was very prominent. At 
Hartford, Conn., June 21, she obtained her present record. Later 
in the season she was purchased by Mr. Wm. H. Vanderbilt, of New 
York, and subsequently driven to the pole with Aldine, trotted the 
Hartford track in 2:16^, but the time does not stand as a technical 
record. She is now used for road driving. 

FANNIE ROBINSON.— Record 2.20X. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1870; sired by Blood Chief ; dam by Alexan- 
der's Norman. This mare began the season of 1879, with a record 
of 2:30^, and at St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 2, placed her presem record 
to her credit. Since then she has not been prominent, her best win- 
ning heat in 1880 being 2:26)^, and in 1881, 2:30. 

FRED DOUGLASS.— Record 2.20X* 

Chestnut stallion, foaled in 1873; sired by Green's Bashaw; dam, 
Nancy Bell. In 1879 this promising young horse dropped into the 
'30 list, reducing his record from 2:34 to 2:2434. In 1880, 2:25^ 
was his best winning heat. In 1882, at Chicago, 111., July 21, in the 
'25 class for stallions, he won in straight heats, getting his present 
record in the first heat. 

J. P. MORRIS.— Record 2:20/4:.

credited as. beginning without a record), he was started in ten races, 
winning two, and getting a record at Springfield, Mass., Aug. 31, of

record was made at Boston, Mass., Sept. 16, in the '20 class,

when he trotted the fourth heat a dead heat with Forest Patchen, the 
time being the present record of both, and winning the fifth and 
sixth heats in 2:22^, 2:21^, getting second money. He is owned by 
Mr. Benoist, of St. Louis, Mo. Although a little hot-headed, it 
takes an extra good one to down him, and in his class he is generally 
a warm favorite. 

LUCY. — Record 2:20^.. 

Black mare, foaled in 1872; sired by Royal Revenge; dam by 
Imp. Harkaway. In 1879 she began the season with a record of 
2:36 and closed it with a credit of 2:23^. In 1880 at Saginaw, 
Mich. , June 17th, she obtained her present record. In 188 1 she was 
busy starting in seventeen races, but only winning one; however, she 
managed to get placed nearly every time and landed her owners 
nearly $3,000 ahead at the end of the season. In 1882 she was 
purchased by a gentleman residing in New York, and has since been 
used for road driving. 

MAZO MANIE.— Record 2:2oX- 

Chestnut gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high; foaled in 1867; sired by 
the Kurtz horse, dam by Brown's Bellfounder. The iron horse (as 
his name implies) is a converted pacer and began his trotting career 
in 1875, getting a record of 2:27^. In 1876 this was reduced to 
2:23^. 1877 was his best season on the turf, and at that time .he 
was a very prominent horse. His record was obtained at Cleveland, 
O., July 24th, in the '23 class, when he won the second, third and 
fourth heats, the last in the fast time of his present record. In 1878 
2:21 y z was his fastest heat. During 1879 2:2 3^ wa s his be^t credit. 
In 18S0 he was driven on the road, and in 188 1 and 1882, although 
trotting a number of races, he did not do well. He is very fast to 
road wagon or to sleigh, and for pleasure-driving a very desirable 
horse. 

NAIAD QUEEN.— Record 2:20^. 

Bay mare; sired by Gooding's Champion; dam, Tackey, by Pilot, 
Jr. In 1881 she began her turf career, getting a record of 2:27^. 
In 1882 she was very fast. At Point Breeze Park, Philadelphia, 
Pa., May 17th, in the '28 class, she won, best time 2:26^ ; track 
very heavy. At Hartford, Conn., June 2ist, she obtained her pres- 
ent record. If she keeps her form this season, with good day and 
track, any horse that beats her to the wire is sure to make a record 
that will put him several notches below the '21 class.

OVERMAN.— Record 2:203^. 

Chestnut gelding, 16^ hands high; foaled in 1875; sired by Elmo, 
dam by Billly McCracken. When three years old he obtained a 
record in California of 2:33. He did not start again in a race until 
in 1882, when driven by Mr. O. A. Hickok, he was a very promi- 
nent winner. At Chicago, 111., July 22d, in a special race he was a 
close second in 2:22^- At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 2d, he won the 
purse for the '29 class ; best time 2:20^. At Rochester, N. Y., 
Aug. gth, he repeated his victory. At Poughkeepsie, N. Y., August 
23d, he won a six heat race, trotting the second a dead heat, win- 
ning the third; fifth and sixth. At Hartford, Conn., he won in 
straight heats ; best time 2:21^. At Springfield, Mass., Sept. 5th, 
he obtained his present record. With good day and track he can 
trot in 2:17 or '18, and if he keeps right he will undoubtedly be a 
favorite in his class this season. 

SHERIDAN.— Record 2:2oX- 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1871; sired by Edward Everett; dam by 
American Star. In 1877 he made his appearance on the trotting 
turf, scoring a record of 2:23. In 1878 this was reduced to 2:22^. 
1879 J us t equaled his previous record. In 1880, at Boston, Mass., 
Sept. 7th, he obtained his present record. 

VOLTAIRE.— Record 2:20^. 

Brown stallion, foaled in 1868; sired by Tattler, by Pilot, Jr., 
dam, Young Portia, by Mambrino Chief. In 1877 he began his turf 
career, scoring a record of 2:21^. In 1879 this was reduced to 2:21. 
In 1880 he just equaled his previous record. 188 1 was his last season 
on the turf (and it was a busy one). Starting in twenty-two races, he 
won four, and a place in a majority of the other. His record was 
made at Springfield, Mass., Aug. 30th, in the '21 class, winning 
the second, third and fourth heats. He was a great horse that day, 
and could probably on that slow track have beaten 2 :20 if forced out. 

SILVERTON.— Record 2:2oX- 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1874; sired by Blue Bull;" dam, the Litter- 
ell mare. In 1879 ne began his turf career, closing the season with 
a record of 2:22^. During 1880 his best winning heat was 2:23^.

prominent winner through the Michigan Circuit. At Fort Wayne, 
Ind., May 26th, he won the '23 class in straight heats, best time

2.27, I 2- At Jackson, Mich., June g, he won the same class, track 
heavy, beating a fast field, including Minnie R., Florence, Edwin 
Thorn e and others, best time 2:30. At East Saginaw, Mich., June 
iS, he won in the same class in straight heats, getting his present 
record in the third heat. He is also credited by the Spiiit of the 
Times as getting his record at Pittsburgh, Pa., July 14, when he won 
the '21 class, trotting the first heat in 2:20^. During 1882 he was 
not in good form during the greater part of the season, his best win- 
ning time being 2:26^. When right to an edge, no horse in his 
class has license to down him, and if he keeps right this season he 
will make any horse that beats him trot out of the '20 class. 

CHANCE.— Record 2:20^. 

Chestnut gelding, foaled in 1870, sired by Blue Bull; dam by Pete 
Griffin. This horse has made but one prominent season on the turf, 
but in that proved himself possessed of great speed. In 1879 ne 
commenced with a record of 2:30^ and started in the Grand Circuit 
in the '30 class. At Cleveland he was second to Ettie Jones and 
many thought he could have won. At Buffalo, N. Y., August 8th, 
in the '27 class he won one of the hardest fought races ever trotted. 
Moose, from his recent victories, was a warm favorite, and after 
winning two heats each by a neck only, was considered a sure winner. 
John E. Turner sat behind Chance, and in the third heat landed 
him a winner, in the fast time of his present record, the fourth and 
fifth heats were repetitoins, both horses being driven out under the 
whip, and both won by a head, indeed in the five heats not one was 
won by more than a neck and shoulders; time 2:21^, 2:22^,2:20^, 
2:21^, 2:22. It is reported Mr. Turner is now handling Chance, 
and if he keeps right he will be campaigned again this year. 

GLENDALE.— Record 2:203^. 

Bay gelding; sired- by Mambrino Wagner; dam, Rosedale, by 
Berkley's Edwin Forrest. In 1877 he dropped into the '30 list, re- 
ducing his record from 2:46 to 2:27*^. This was not reduced until 
1880, when at Hartford, Conn., Aug. 24th, he won the '27 class in 
straight heats, getting his present record, time 2:22j^, 2:23^, 
2:20^. He is owned by Mr. T. C. Eastman of New York, who 
u$es him for road driving. 

IRENE.— Record 2:20^.

third in 2:21, the fourth was a dead heat with Charlie Ford in 2:20^ 
and she won the fifth heat in the same time. Trotting three heats 
each in 2:20^ and another in 2:21 looks like trotting to win. Pre- 
vious to the start Lida sold in the pools for five dollars in a hundred 
and her backers landed a big stake. This was her last season on the 
turf and it is not probable she will be again campaigned. 



LONDON.— Record 2:20 



Chestnut gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high; foaled in 1876; sired by 
Mambrino Patchen, dam by Edwin Forrest. In 1881 he began trot- 
ting, getting a record at Louisville, Ky., Sept. 27th, of 2:28^. In 
1882 he was brought out in fine form, and at Cleveland, O., July 
26th, won the '29 class after a struggle of six heats, winning the first 
in the time of his record, the second in 2:21^ and the sixth in 
2:27^. His record will now leave him in the '21 class, and when 
right he is able to give a good account of himself even in this com- 
pany. 

NOONTIDE.— Record 2:20^. 

Gray mare, foaled in 1874, sired by Harold, dam Midnight by 
Pilot, Jr. In 1878 she was brought out, getting a record of 2:26. 
In 1879 this was reduced to 2:24. In 1880, at Hartford, Conn., 
June 23d, she obtained her present record. Since then she has per- 
formed the duties of a matron. 

SAM PURDY.— Record 2:20^. 

Bay stallion, foaled in 1866, sired by George M. Patchen, Jr.; 
dam Whisky Jane. In 1873, he began his trotting career, which 
extended to 1876. When at Buffalo, N. Y., August 2d, he obtained 
his present record. ^ During this time he was placed first in thirteen 
faces and won in purses $33,500. 



37 
ABE DOWNING.— Record 2:20^. 

Bay stallion, sired by Joe Downing, dam by Harrison. In 1882 
he commenced the season with a record of $2:34^, and at Buffalo, 
N. Y., August 2d, in the '29 class, won the first heat, the time being 
his present record. At Rochester, N. Y., August 9th, he won the 
first and fourth heats, but lost the race to Overman. He is a hand- 
some little fellow, and with his present record will be a very desirable 
horse for breeding purposes. 

HUNTRESS.— Record 2:20^. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1864, sired by Volunteer, dam Lady Sears. 
This well-known mare began her trotting career in 187 1, and in 
1875 had reduced her record to 2:22^. In 1876 at Philadelphia, 
Pa., June 6th, she reduced her record to its present figure. From 
this time up to and including 1880 she was at the front in every cam- 
paign, and with one exception, put 2:25 or better to her credit for 
the season record. During her career she was placed first in twenty- 
five races, winning in purses nearly $25,000. 

KING WILLIAM.— Record 2:20^. 

Black gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high; foaled in 1877; sired by 
Washington Denmark; dam by Pacing Abdallah. He began the 
season of 1882 with a record of 2:37, and at Point Breeze Park, 
May 18th, won the '35 class ; best time 2:30. At Cleveland, O., 
July 27th, in the '26 class, he won the first heat (getting his present 
record), but lost the race to Aldine. Thus early in his trotting 
career he is marked with a record that places him in fast company, 
and how well he can carry himself remains to be seen. 

LYSANDER BOY.— Record 2:20^. 

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1869; sired by Lysander, by Rysdyk's 
Hambletonian ; dam by Winecreek's Black Hawk. In 1875 he be- 
gan trotting, and in 1877 dropped into the '30 list, reducing his 
record from 2:32 to 2:23 ; 1878 was his last season as a public per- 
former. At Buffalo, N. Y. , July 31st, he obtained his present re- 
cord. He is now owned by Mr. William H. Vanderbilt of New 
York, and has for some time been one of the prominent horses of 
his stable= 

TARIFF.— Record 2:20^. 

Bay stallion: sired by Clarion Chief; dam, Topsy. In 1881 he 
was brought out, and at Utica, N. Y. , August 18th, in the '34 class, 
won the first heat getting a record of 2:23^, but losing the race to 



33 

Clingstone. In 1882 at Chicago, 111., July 17th, in the '23 class, he 
won the second heat, getting his present record. 

M. Y. D.— Record 2:20^. 

FORMERLY YELLOW DOCK. 

Chestnut mare, 15 hands 3 inches high; sired by Clark's Mohawk, 
Jr. ; dam by Copperbottom. In 1S81 she was brought out under the 
name of Mohawk Maid, and at Cleveland, O., Sept. 6, gained a 
record of 2:29^. She was purchased after this by a patent medicine 
firm, and as an advertisement, given the name of Yellow Dock, In 
1882 she proved herself possessed of great speed. At Utica, N. 
Y. , Aug. 16, she won the '29 class in straight heats, getting her 
present record, in the second heat. At Providence, R. I., Nov. 
2, she was driven by John Murphy to the pole, with running 
mate, a match race against Billy D. and mate, driven by Dan Mace. 
It was a race that excited a great deal of interest, Billy D. having as 
record for that way of going of 2:14^, and about $75,000 changed 
hands on the result. The mare won hands down in straight heats, 
trotting the third without a skip in the unprecedented time of 2.1 1. 

BANQUO.— Record 2 21. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1868. Pedigree unknown. In 1875 he 
was credited with a record of 2:30^, which, in 1876, was reduced to 
2:30. In 1877 he was entered through the Grand Circuit, and at 
Utica, N. Y., Aug. 17, obtained his present record. During 1878. 
2:22 was his best winning time. Since then he has not been a prom- 
inent performer on the turf. 

CASTLE BOY.— Record 2:21. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1865; sired by Gooding's Champion- dam 
by Finley's Morgan Tiger. In 1874, at Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 4th. he 
obtained his present record. Since then he has not been prominent 
on the turf. He is now used for road driving, and it is not probable 
he will be again campaigned, 

CASTLETON.— Record 2:21 

Bay gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high, foaled in 1872; sired by 
Chesebrough; dam unknown. In 1 879 he began the season with a 
record of 2:40, and became quite a prominent horse. At Rochester, 
N. Y., Aug. 13th, in the '22 class, he won the first heat, getting his 
present record. In 1880 his best winning heat was 2 27^, He has

position, added to his great speed, make him a very desirable horse 
for pleasure driving. 

CLEMENTINE.— Record 2:21. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1864; sired by Addison, Jr.; dam by Wilson's 
Emigrant. In 1875, at Rochester. N. Y., Aug. 10th, she obtained her 
present record. A further description of her is not deemed neces- 
sary, as at her age it is not probable she will be again campaigned. 

DOTY.— Record 2:21. 

Dapple brown gelding, 16 hands high; foaled in 1870; sired by 
Challenge; dam, a Belmont mare. In 1877 he dropped into the

1878, at Santa Clara, Cal., Oct. 2d, in the '23 class, he won in straight 
heats, time 2:23, 2:21^, 2:21, the last being his present record. In 
1880 he repeated his record. In 1881 he was purchased by Mr. 
Wesley P. Balch, of Boston, Mass., and since that time, we believe, 
has not been campaigned. 

GENERAL GARFIELD.— Record 2:21. 

Bay gelding, 15 *^ hands high, foaled in 1865; sired by Kentucky 
Black Hawk; dam by Captain Walker. In 1875, at Utica, N. Y., 
Aug. 17, he obtained his present record. During 1876, 2:22^ was 
his best winning heat. Since then he has not been a prominent per- 
former, 2:293^ in 1878, and 2:27^ in 1879, being his best winning 
performances. 

GENERAL GRANT.— Record 2:21. 

Chestnut stallion, 15^ hands high, foaled in 1869, sired by Wap- 
sie, son of Green's Bashaw, dam by Hanley's Hiatoga. In 1872 he

29th, she won the '22 class for members* horses, getting her present 
record in the first heat. In the Blanchard purse, for the '17 class, at 
Boston, Mass., September 14th, she won third money. She is now 
owned by Mr. Cohnfeld, of New York, and in her races is handled 
by John Murphy. 

INDIANAPOLIS.— Record 2:21. 

Brown stallion, 16 hands high ; foaled in 1868; Sired by Tattler ; 
dam, Indiana by Mambrino Chief. In 1878 he began the season 
with a record of 2:31^, and at Cleveland O., July 25th, in the '30 
class, he won the second heat, getting his present record, and also 
won the fourth heat in the same time. At Buffalo, N.Y., he was a 
winner, and at Rochester, repeated his victory. — He is now retired. 

KING PHILLIP.— Record 2:21. 

Bay stallion, Sired by Jay Gould ; dam, Factory Girl. In 1876 
he made his appearance on the trotting turf, scoring a record of 2:29! b. 
In 1877 at Cleveland O., July 25th, in the '27 class, he won the first 
heat, the time being his present record. 

LADY PRITCHARD.— Record 2:21. 

Chestnut mare, foaled in 1869; sired by Green Mountain Banner ; 
dam, by Flying Morgan. In 1877 she dropped into the '30 list, re- 
ducing her record from 2:35 to 2:22^- In 1878 at Buffalo, N.Y., 
July 31st, she obtained her present record. She is now owned by 
Mr. Schultz, of Brooklyn, N.Y., and is used for road driving. She 
is said to be a fine pole mare, and her owner has recently purchased 
Kitty Bates, record 2:19, as a mate for the u Lady." 

LUCILLE.— Record 2:21. 

Bay mare, foaled in 1870 ; sired by Exchequer ; dam, the Bale- 
man Mare. In 1877 she began her turf career, scoring a record of 
2:29. In 1878 at Buffalo, N.Y., Aug. 1st, she obtained her present 
record. In 1879 2:23^ was her best winning heat. She is now 
performing the duties of a matron and will not probably be cam- 
paigned again. 

LUMPS.— Record 2:21. 

Brown stallion, 14 hands I inch high ; foaled in 1875; sired by 
George Wilkes ; dam, by Pearsall. The smallest trotter on the turf 
dropped into the <k Magic List " ; in 1880 reducing his record from 
2:35K to 2:2 5j4* I n 1881, this was again reduced to 2:24^. In 
1882 at Maysville, Ky., Sept. 20th, in the '20 class he won in the first 
heat, getting his present record.

NICKEL.— Record 2:21. 

Bay gelding; sired by Oak Hill. This young horse, now so well 
known, was developed and owned at Dunkirk, N. Y. ; he was only 
an ordinary driver, and could trot in about '50 until last season when 
he reduced his record from 2:59*4' to 2:2 5X- He was purchased 
after this by Dan Mace and taken to New York, and shortly after 
resold at $5,000. This season he has shown very fast, and at Hart- 
ford, Conn., June 15th, in the '25 class won the first heat, reducing 
his record to 2:21, but lost the race to Ezra L. We are of the opin- 
ion that his present record about takes his measure. 

PHIL. THOMPSON.— Record 2:21. 

Gray gelding, 15 hands 2 inches high; foaled in 1878; sired by 
Red Wilkes; dam, Annie Bell. In 1881, as a three-year-old this 
colt wiped out the previous record for that age at Chicago, 111., July 
26th, winning the race in straight heats, the last in the very fast time 
of his present record. In 1882 he was sick and unable to start. He 
was entered in all the principal five-year-old events for 1883, but does 
not appear to be in good form. His owner, Mr. Raymond, is se- 
riously considering withdrawing him entirely this year and sending 
him to Kentucky to winter. John Murphy is handling him, and it is 
possible he may yet round-to and be himself. All lovers of turf 
sports will devoutly hope for such a result, as he is undoubtedly one 
of the fastest young horses ever brought out. 

PHYLLISS.— Record 2:21. 

Brown mare, 16// hands high, foaled in 1875; sired by Phil Sheri- 
dan; dam Lilla, (Lola Montez's dam.) In 1880 she dropped into 
the '30 list reducing her record from 2:36 to 2:29^. In 1881 she 
started in ten races, winning seven and reducing her record to 
2:26^. In 1882 at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Aug. 24th, in the '26 class 
she won the first heat, getting her present record. Her owner lately 
refused $8,000 for her. 

POWERS.— Record 2:21. 

Brown gelding, 153^ hands high; sired by Volunteer; dam Jennie 
by Seely's American Star. In 1877 he began his turf career, scoring 
a record of 2:2iX» I* 1 1878 at Utica, N. Y., Aug. 17th, he obtained 
his present record. 1879 was hi s l ast season on the turf, 2:23 being 
his best credit for that campaign. He has won first position in six- 
teen races, with forty heats won in 2:30 and better, and in purses 
more than $13,000.

RICHARD.— Record 2:21. 

Chestnut gelding, foaled in 1867; sired by Blue Bull; dam by Sir 
Leslie. In 1876 he reduced his record from 2:31 to 2:25, and in 
1877 again cut it down, placing 2:21^ to his credit. In 1878 at 
Utica, N. Y., Aug. 17th, he scored his present record. 1880 was 
his last season on the turf and he repeated his record as his best 
credit in this campaign. He is owned by S. Foster Dewey, of New 
York, and is one of the fastest road horses in the metropolis. 

SCOTT'S THOMAS.— Record 2:21. 

Bay stallion, 16 hands high, foaled in 1870, sired by Gen. George 
H. Thomas; dam Lady Rice. In 1876 he started in his first race 
and closed the season with a record of 2:32^. In 1877 he was not 
campaigned. In 1S78 he was very fast. At Cleveland, O., July 
25th, in the '30 class, he won a six heat race, taking the first, fifth 
and sixth, best time 2:21^4. At Buffalo, N. Y., August 2d, in the 
same class he won the second heat, getting his present record. At 
Utica he again won a race of eight heats, taking the fourth, seventh 
and eighth, and at Hartford, Conn., again won in straight heats. In 
1879 his best winning credit was 2:2 3X« Since then he has been 
retired from the turf; while the fact that he is blind detracts from his 
value as a road horse it probably does not impair his usefulness in 
the stud. 

WILD FLOWER.— Record 2:21. 

Bay mare, 15 hands 1 inch high, foaled March 23d, 1879, sired by 
Electioneer; dam Mayflower. At the Bay District Track, San Fran- 
cisco, Cal., October 22d, 1881, this baby trotter, being then two 
years old, undertook, for a medal, to beat the best previous time for 
her age, 2:31. She was sent off at the first score, going to the quar- 
ter in 35 X seconds, the half in 1:09^ and finished the mile without 
a skip in 2:21. 

BILLY BUTTON.— Record 2:21%. 

Chestnut gelding; sired by Hambletonian Prince. He began the 
season of 18S2 without a record, but closed the year inside the '30 
line, having obtained a record of 2:29. He began the season of 
1883 in fine form, and has been a very prominent winner. At Mys- 
tic Park, Boston, Mass., May 30, he won the race for the '29- class, 
taking the third, fourth and fifth heats, time 2:23, 2:25, 2f25. At 
the Gentlemen's Driving Park, New York, June 20, he won the race 
for the '25 class in straight heats, time 2:21^, 2:21^, 2:22^. At 

Ask for it, take no other, West's Carriage Dressing. 



44 

Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 27th, in the '29 class, he won the 
first heat in 2:21^, winning by two lengths, and could have trotted 
in '20 if forced out, and the second heat, although making three or 
four skips, won handily in 2:233^, after this he "quit" — or could not 
get his head — and the race was won by a horse that, before the start, 
sold for $18.00 in pools of $168.00. When the records are made up 
for this year we shall not be surprised to see Billy marked several 
notches lower than at present. 

CORNELIA.— Record 2:21*4;. 

Black mare; foaled in 1875; sired by Colonel Bonner; dam, un- 
known. In 1882 she made her appearance on the turf and became 
a very prominent winner. At Hartford, Conn., June 20th, she won 
the 3:00 class in straight heats; time 2:26,2:26, 2:26^. At Buffalo, 
N. Y., Aug. 4th and 5th, she won the $3,000 purse for no-record 
horses, taking the fourth, fifth and sixth heats; time 2:23, 2:22^, 
2:26^' At Utica, N. Y., Aug. 17th and i8ih, she won the '26 class, 
which was another six-heat race, winning the first, trotting a dead 
heat with Mamie in the third, winning the fifth, getting her present 
record, and the sixth in the fast time of 2:24^. In either of the 
last heats she could easily have trotted in 2:20 if forced out. Her 
career this season will be watched with interest. 

DAN SMITH.— Record 2:21%. 

Bay gelding; foaled in 1872; sired by Reporter (son of Hamble- 
tonian); dam by Young Trustee. In 1877 he dropped into the '30 
list, reducing his record from 2:46 to 2:28^. In 1879 this was re- 
duced to 2:28. In 1880, at Springfield, Mass., Aug. 17th, he won 
the '27 class, winning the second, third and fourth heats, the time 
of the last being his present record. During 1881, 2:22^ was his 
best credit. In 1882 2:23^ was his best, winning time. He is a 
very fast horse, and when just at an edge can probably trot a good 
track in 2:20 or better. 

EZRA L.— Record 2i2i}4. 

Roan gelding; sired by Gideon. He began the season of 1882 
without a record, but proved himself a trotter, closing the year with 
2:25^ to his credit. The campaign of 1883 has found him faster 
than ever. At Mystic Park, Boston, Mass., May 31st, he won the 
'26 class in straight heats; best time 2:24^. At Providence, R. I., 
June 8th, he won the race for the '25 class in straight heats; best 
time 2:25^. At Hartford, Conn., June 15th, he won the race for

the '25 class, losing the first heat to Nickel in 2:21, winning the next 
three ; time 2:21 ^, 2:22^, 2:23. He is said to have trotted the 
last quarter of the second heat in 30 seconds — a two minute gait. 
At Beacon Park, Boston, Mass., June 22d, he won the race for the 
'21 class in straight heats; best time 2:22. If no mishap befalls him 
we look to see Ezra trot in 2:17 or '18 before the records are made up 
for 1883. 

HAMBLETONIAN BASHAW.— Record 2:21^. 

Bay stallion; foaled in 1870; sired by Green's Bashaw; dam, Lady 
Byron. In 1879 he entered the '30 list, reducing his record from

Sixteen heats in 2:30 and better are placed to his credit. 

INDEPENDENCE.— Record 2:2iX- 

Gray stallion ; sired by Gen. Knox; dam by Gideon. In 1881 he 
made his appearance on the trotting turf, and at Fleetwood Park, 
Oct. 6th, in the stakes for stallions that had never beaten 2:20, won 
in straight heats, the time of the first being his present record. 

JERSEY BOY.— Record 2:21^.

bie, by Young Gen. Taylor. In 1877 ne dropped into the '30 list, 
reducing his record from 2:50^ to 2:27. In 1878 this was ag^ain re- 
duced to 2:22j^. In 1879 2:2 5 was h^ s best winning credit. In

nine races, winning four, and in the first at Washington, D. C, May

WILSON.— Record 2:2i#. 

Bay gelding, 15 hands 3 inches high; foaled in 1876; sired by 
George Wilkes; dam by Clark Chief. In 1882 he began without a 
record, and was one of the sensational trotters of the season, win-

Utica, N. Y., Aug. 15th, he again won the '38 class in straight heats, 
getting his present record in the first heat. He can trot in 2:20, and 
possibly much faster. 

ABBOTTSFORD.— Record 2:21^. 

Bay stallion; foaled in 1872; sired by Woodford Mambrino; dam, 
Columbia, by Young Columbus. In 1878 he began trotting without 
a record, and at San Jose, Cal., Oct. 2d, won the 2:40 class, getting 
his present /ecord in the second heat. In 1880 his best winning time 
was 2:27^. In 1881 he repeated his record as his best performance 
for that season. 

BLISS.— Record 2:21 >£. 

Brown mare; foaled 1876; sired by Bayard; dam, Dollie Hazard. 
In 1880 she started without a record, and at Albany, N. Y., Sept. 
9th, scored a record of 2:30. In 1882, at Chicago, 111., July 18th, in 
the '30 class, she won the third heat, getting her present record. She 
is a very promising mare, and being now but seven years old has a 
prospect of placing to her credit a much faster mark than she has yet 
obtained. 

EWING.— Record 2:21 %. 

Bay gelding; sired by Primus; dam, Lady Washington. In 1882 
he began the season with a record of 2:35^, and proved himself 
possessed r,f great speed. At Cleveland, O., Sept. 5th, he won the 
'29 class in straight heats, the time of the second being his present 
record. Fast as this mark is it is said to be no measure of his speed, 
and he will bear watching this season when he starts in faster com- 
pany than he has yet met. 

MATTIE GRAHAM.— Record 2:21^. 

Bay mare; sired by Harold; dam by Mambrino Chief. She began 
the season of 1881 with a record of 2:37^, and was started in 
twenty-nine races, winning three and a share of the money in a num- 
ber of others, reducing her record to 2:29^. In .1882 she was again 
busy, starting early in the season in fine form. At Grand Rapids, 
Mich., June 27th, she won the '23 class, taking the first heat in 2:23 
(over a half mile track). At Chicago, 111., July 18th, she won the '30 
class, trotting the first heat in the time of her present record. One 
of the best campaigners on the turf, she is always sent for the front, 
and no race is too long or hot for her. 

RED CROSS.— Record 2:213^. 

Chestnut stallion; sired by Brigand; dam by Dole's Magna Charta. 
In 1 88 1 he began his turf career, closing the season with a record of

2:2()X- I n *882 ne was early in the field. At Maysville, Ky. 
May 17th, he won the '30 class in straight heats, reducing his record 
to 2:22^. At Columbus, O., May 24th, he won the '20 class, re- 
ducing his record to its present figure. 

STEVE MAXWELL.— Record 2:21^. 

Gray gelding, 16 handsh igh ; foaled in 1866 ; sired by Ole Bull, 
Jr., dam by Grigsby's Matchless Whale. In 1875 he trottedhis first 
race and closed the season with a record of 2:34. In 1876 this was 
reduced to 2:273^. In 1878 he again reduced the figures to 2:24^. 
In 1879 ne J ust repeated his record. In 1880 at Rochester, N.Y., 
Aug. ioth, he won the '25 class of two mile heats, scoring a record 
of 4:48^, which was then the best two mile record. At Hartford, 
Conn., Aug. 28th, he reduced his record to its present figure. Some 
years ago this horse was sold at Louisville, Ky., for $87.00 ; when 
shortly afterwards his owner claimed he was a trotter, no one be- 
lieved him. Now he is one of the best known horses in the country. 

CHARLEY CHAMPLIN.— Record 2:21 #. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1875; sired by Messenger Duroc ; dam by 
Seely's American Star. He began his trotting career as a five-year- 
old, closing the season of 1880 with a record of 2:24^. In 1881 
he started in five races, winning three. At Hartford Conn., June 
28th, he won the '25 class in straight heats, getting his present record 
in the first heat. In 1882 he was not campaigned. 

ROSE OF WASHINGTON.— Record 2:21^. 

Gray mare, foaled in 1867; sired by Green's Bashaw ; dam, Lady 
Mc Nair. In 1877 she began her turf career, scoring a record of 
2:27. In 1878 she reduced the figures to 2:26^. In 1879 at Chicago, 
111., July 25th, she got her present record. In 1880, 2:22 j^ was her 
best winning heat, and in 1881, 2:26 was the best figure placed to 
her credit. In 1882 she was not campaigned. 

TOPSY.— Record 2:21^. 

Brown mare, sired by Walkill Chief. She began the season of 
1882 without a record. Starting in the Grand Circuit at Rochester, 
driven by John Murphy, she was not a winner, and again at Utica, 
secured only third position in the '38 class. At Poughkeepsie, N. 
Y., Aug. 22d, in the same class, she won the first heat, getting her 
present record. With day and track to suit her this young mare can 
trot in 2:20, and in her class must be counted a probable winner.

AMELIA C— Record 2:22. 

Brown mare, sired by Dexter Bradford, owned by Edward Kear- 
ney, of Albany, N. Y., and driven by James Dougrey. She began 
the season of 1882 without a record, and although closing the year 
with a record of 2:29^, it was well known that this mark was no 
measure of her speed. Since the opening of the campaign for 1883, 
she has been "cut loose," and the predictions of her friends fully 
verified. At Hartford, Conn., June I2lh, she won the purse for the 
'28 class in straight heats, time 2:22^, 2:22, 2:22. At Gentlemen's 
Driving Park, New York, June 21st, she won the race for the '30 
class, her best time 2:24^. We do not believe this young mare has 
struck bottom, even with her present fast record, and shall not be 
surprised if the records made up at the close of 1883, mark her sev- 
eral points lower than at present. 

ALBERT W.— Record 2:22. 

Bay stallion, foaled in 1878; sired by Electioneer; dam by John 
Nelson. In 1881 he was brought out, and at Stockton, Cal., Sept. 
29th, won a purse for three-year-olds, getting a record in the fourth 
heat of 2:28. In 1882, at the same place, Sept. 23d, he won the 
purse for the '22 class, beating Nellie R. and Sweetness, and scoring 
his present record in the third heat. 

BELLA. — Record 2:22. 

Bay mare ; foaled in 1867 ; sired by Rysdyk's Hambletontian ; 
dam, Lady McCann, by Jupiter. In 1874 SQe began her trotting ca- 
reer, and in 1875, at Hartford, Conn., Sept. 2d, obtained her present 
record. 1876 was her last season on the turf, and she repeated her 
record. During the three campaigns, she won twelve races, and in 
purses $18,500. 

BATEMAN- Record 2:22. 

Brown gelding; foaled in 1869; sired by Doty's Harry Clay; dam 
by Rysdyk's Hambletonian. In 1875 ne began his trotting career, 
closing the season'with a record of 2:27. In 1876 he just equaled his 
record. In 1877 his best winning heat was 2-27)^. In 1878 here- 
duced his record to 2:22^. In 1881, at Stockton, Cal., Sept. 29th, 
in the '22 class, he won the first heat, the time being his present rec- 
ord. Forty-two heats in 2:30 and better are placed to his credit. 

CALMAR.— Record 2:22. 

Bay gelding, foaled in 1870; sired by Bourbon Chief ; dam by 
March's Boliver. In 1876 he was brought out, closing the season 
with a record of 2:30. In 1S77 this was reduced to 2:23^. In 1878

he chipped off a fraction, leaving it 2:23^. These figures were not 
reduced until in 1881, at Pittsburgh Pa., Sept. 15th, in the '24 class 
he won a race of seven heats, taking the second, sixth and seventh, 
the time of the last being his present record. During his turf career 
he has won nineteen races, and in stakes and purses over $10,000. 
Some authorities have given the age of this horse as foaled in 1866, 
but we do not think this is correct. 

DAME TROT.— Record 2:22. 

Black mare, 1$% hands high ; foaled in 1870; sired by Messenger 
Duroc ; dam, Green Mountain Maid. In 1878 she begae the season 
with a record of 2:37^, but with a great turn of speed, that in her 
races through the Grand Circuit, brought her to the front three times 
a winner. At Utica, N.Y., Aug. 13th, she obtained her present 
record, Since then she has been used for breeding purposes, but 
should she be returned to the turf, she has a chance to still further 
distinguish herself, as her present record is said to be no measure of 
her speed. She comes of a family of trotters, her full sister Elaine 
having a record of 2:20, and her full brother Prospero had, at the 
time of her death, at eight years of age, the same record, 2:20. 

DIRECTOR.— Record 2:22. 

Black stallion, foaled in 1877; sired by Dictator; dam Dolly, the 
dam of Thornedale. In 1880, as a three-year-old, he gained a record 
of 2:30. In 1 881 this was reduced to 2:27^. In 1882, at Stockton, 
Cal., Sept. 20th, in the '25 class, he won, taking the third, fourth and 
fifth heats, reducing his record to 2:233^. In 1883 he was brought 
East, and has proved himself. faster than ever. At the Gentlemen's 
Driving Park, New York, June 21st, in the '21 class, he won the 
third heat, getting a record of 2:22. At Island Park, Albany, N. Y., 
June 26th, he won the race for the '22 class in straight heats, time 
2:22^, 2:23^, 2:22. 

EMMA B.— Record 2:22. 

NOW CALLED POLICE GAZETTE. 

Gray mare, foaled in 1873; sired by Bayard, by Pilot, Jr. ; dam by 
Brown Harry. In 1879 she began the season with a record of 2:38, 
and at Point Breeze Park, Oct. 2d, reduced her record to its present 
figure. In 1880 2:22)^ was her her best winning credit. In 1881 
she scored the same figures as her best performance. In 1882 she 
was "off," and did not make a successful campaign. She is now be- 
ing driven on the road by Richard K. Fox, her owner.

JOE BROWN.— Record 2:22. 

Gray stallion, foaled in 1865; sired by Woodward's Rattler; dam 
by Noble's Vermont Hambletonian. In 1870 he began his turf 
career, and in 1875 na d placed 2:26 as his record. In 1876, at 
Philadelphia, Pa., June 7th, in the '24 class, he won, getting his 
present record in the fourth heat. 1477 was his last season on the 
turf, and 2:26 was his best credit for that year. It is not probable 
that he will again be campaigned. During his turf career he won 
thirty-three races with forty heats in 2:30 and better, and in purses 
nearly $26,000. 

JUDGE DAVIS.— Record 2:22. 

Bay gelding ; sired by Joe Brown. This now celebrated horse began 
the season of 1883 without a record, but with a wonderful turn of 
speed, having thus early in his trotting career obtained a record as fast 
as his sire. At Providence, R. I., June 5th, he won the purse for 
the 3:00 class in straight heats; time 2:30, 2:30^, 2:29^. At Char- 
ter Oak Park, Hartford, Conn., June 12th, he won the purse for the 
3:00 class, best time 2:23. At same place on the 15th inst., he won 
the purse for the '42 class, trotting the first heat in 2:22. At Fleet- 
wood Park, New York, June 22d, in the 3:00 class he won second 
money, and again at Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 27th, won 
fourth money having at each of the latter meetings to meet Majolica 
and Phallas. The Judge can undoubtedly trot in 2:20, and is cer- 
tainly one of the most promising young horses in the country.

DICTATOR.— Record 2:22%. 

Brown gelding; 15X nan ds high ; foaled in 1866; sired by Comet ; 
dam, unknown. This horse known as Huckleberry, Pluck, Brown 
Jack and John T., has been campaigned in many sections of this 
Great Republic, from New York west to Dakota and South to 
Texas. A complete account of his races would fill a small volume, 
as he has been kept constantly busy, and as soon as out-classed in one 
locality moved to new pastures, when under another name, he could 
gather in a few shekels for his managers. His trotting career began 
about 1872, and in 1876 at Dallas, Texas, Oct. 26th (as Pluck), he 
obtained a record of 2:29^. In 1877, this was reduced to 2:26. 
This remained his record until in 1879, at Cleveland O., July 30th, 
in the '26 class, he won the second heat, getting his present record. 
He is now owned and is being campaigned in the North-west.

Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 3d, obtained his present record. In 1877 his 
best credit for the season was 2:26*^. The name of this grand

ances, but also by those of his get who have been placed in the front 
rank since his retirement.

Bay mare; foaled in 1871; sired by Volunteer; dam, St. Julien's 
dam. In 1880 she began her trotting career, closing the season with

trot in 2:20. He is owned by his driver, James McKee. His pres- 
ent record was made at Pittsburgh, Pa., July 12th, in the '29 class, 
when he won the second, third and fourth heats; time 2:23, 2:25, 
2:22^.

the race. At Providence, R. I., June 6th, he won the race for the

Innis, by Imp. Glencoe. In 1879, when but three years old, he

this season.

Habletonian; dam Bessie by Sam Wiley. In 1880 he dropped into''

$17,000. 

GLADIATOR.— Record 2:22^. 

Bay gelding; 16 hands 2 J^ inches high; foaled in 1874; sired by 
Blue Bull; dam by Jim Monroe. The season of 1882 was his first on 
the turf, and although not a prominent winner he is a horse possessed 
of a wonderful turn of speed. He has been timed quarters in 31^ 
seconds, and as he is improving and learning to carry his speed, his 
present mark is no detriment to him. At Hartford, Conn., Aug. 
29th, in the '38 class he won in straight heats, the time of the second 
being his present record. 

PALMA— Record 2:22^. 

Chestnut gelding; 15^ hands high; foaled in 1872; sired by 
Matchless; dam by Eaton horse. In 1880 he be^an the season with 
a record of 2:31. At East Saginaw, Mich., June 18th, in the '30

credit. 

R. P.— Record 2:22^.

season with a record of 2:32^, and became quite a prominent horse. 
At Rochester in the '23 class he won the first two heats, each in 2:24, 
and at Utica, N. Y., the following week again won the first two 
heats, but in each case lost the race to Unolala. At Mystic Park, 
Boston, Mass., Sept. 13th, in the '23 class he won the first heat, the 
time being his present record. 

ALCANTARA.— Record 2:23. 

Brown stallion; foaled in 1876; sired by George Wilkes; dam, 
Alma Mater by Mambrino Patchen. In 1880 he made his first ap- 
pearance on the turf and proved himself possessed of a good turn of 
speed. At Louisville, Ky., Oct. 8th, in the '23 class, he won the 
first heat in a jog, time 2:23 (his present record), the fifth heat in 



6o 

2 - 2 4/^j trotted the sixth a dead heat in 2:26^, and was second the 
seventh and eighth in 2:23^, 2:24. 

For a four-year-old this is quite a race, and without other honors 
would give him a grand record for the stud. 

BLUE MARE.— Record 2:23. 

Roan mare; sired by Wood's Hambletonian; dam by Potter's Clay. 
In 1876 she entered the '30 list, reducing her record from 2:323^ to

the Grand Circuit in the '25 class. At Rochester, N. Y., August 10th, 
she obtained her present record. During 1878 her best credit was 
2:24^. Since then she has not been campaigned. 

BONNER.— Record 2:23. * .

present record. He has placed to his credit sixteen heats, won in 
2:30 and better. 

BONNER BOY.— Record 2:23. 

Bay gelding; foaled in 1867 ; sired by Gill's Vermont ; dam, 
unknown. In 1879 ne appears to have started without a record, 
although then twelve years old. His present record was made in 
that year at East Saginaw, Mich., June 19th. Since that season he 
has been campaigned, but has not been a prominent winner. 

CLARA CLEVELAND.— Record 2:23. 

Chestnut mare; 15 hands 3 inches high ; sired by Amboy ; dam, 
Dolly Guy. In 1882 she started with a record in the thirties, and 
proved in her first prominent race that she possessed not only speed, 
but staying qualities equal to any old campaigner. At Chicago, 111., 
July 18th, she won the '35 class, trotting seven heats, winning the 
third and fifth, making the sixth a dead heat in 2:24^, and winning 
the seventh in the fast time of her present record, and also the fastest 
heat in the race. After such a performance, her present record can 
scarcely be called any measure of her speed. 

CLIFTON BOY.— Record 2:23. 

Black gelding; foaled in 1868 ; sired by Joe, son of Black Hawk ; 
dam, unknown. In 1876 he dropped into the '30 list, reducing his

it 2:23^. In 1878, at Detroit, Mich., July 6th, he obtained his 
present record. During 1879 his best credit was 2:26^. Since then 
he does not appear as a winner. Duting his turf career he has won 
twenty-four races, and in purses, &c, $11,500. 

COMMODORE.— Record 2:23. 

Bay gelding; foaled in rS68; sired by Young Post-Boy ; dam by 
Edward Everett. In 1872 Ins turf career began, and in 1875 ne na ^

In 188 1 he began trotting without a record, and at Hartford, Conn., 
Oct. 15th, won the '35 class, getting a record of 2:28^ in the fifth 
heat. This was not reduced until in 1882, at Boston, Mass., July 
20th, when he won the '29 class in straight heats, getting his present 
record in the first heat. 

ETHEL.— Record 2:23. 

Gray, mare; 16 hands high; f oak d in 1872; sired by Blue Bull; 
dam by Tom Crowder. In 1878 she began the season with a record 
of 2:35, and at Toledo, O., July 16th (over a half-mile track), scored 
her present record. Since 1879 she has been used for road driving. 
She is a very fine mare, now just in her prime, and should she be 
returned to the turf, would probably wipe out her present record by 
several seconds. During her campaigns of 1878 and 1879, she won 
twenty heats in 2:30 and better. 

EUREKA.— Record 2:23. 

Black gelding; 16 hands 1 inch high; foaled in 1874; sired by Gen. 
Grant; dam unknown. He began the season of 1881 with a record 
of 2:34^. At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 4th, he won the '34 class in 
straight heats, time 2:24, 2:23, 2:23. At no time was a heat in 
doubt, and had he been forced out his record would have been marked 
down several seconds. In 1882 he does not appear as a winner. 

HECTOR.— Record 2:23. 

Bay gelding; sired by Otego Chief; dam unknown. He began the 
season of 1880 with a record of 2:40, and driven by John Murphy,

credit in the 2 130 records. 

H. B. WINSHIP — Record 2:23. 

Black gelding; sired by Aristos; dam by Col. Moulton, he by 
Daniel Lambert. He began the season of 1883 without a record, 
but with a great turn of speed that has so early in the season given 
him a fast record, and shown his ability to chip off at least 3 or 4 
seconds more. At Mystic Park, Boston, Mass , May 30th, he won 
the '38 class in straight heats; time 2:25^, 2:26^, 2:30. At 
same place, Juna 1st, he won the race for the '50 class, time 2:25%, 
2:25X, 2:24^. At Hartford, Conn., June 12th, in the 3:00 
ciass, he won the second heat, getting his present record, 
and second money. At Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 
27th, in the 3:00 ciass he won third money, being a close second to 
Majolica in the third and fourth heats in 2:20, 2:21. There is no 
doubt he can trot in 2:20, and if he be of the improving kind 
will place his mark much lower than it is at present. 

HUGH MCLAUGHLIN.— Record 2:23. 

Bay stallion; sired by Aberdeen; dam unknown. He began the 
season of 1881 with a record of 2:34^- At Springfield, Mass., Sept.

Bay mare; foaled in 1869; sired by Stephen A. Douglass; dam by 
Long Island Black Hawk. In 1875 she was entered in the Grand 
Circuit, and though very fast was not reliable. Her present record 
was made in that year, Aug. 7th, at Rochester, N. Y. During 1876, 
2:25 was berbest winning credit, and in 1877, 2:26 was her best 
performance. During 1881 and 1882 she was trotted under the 
name of Myrtie Thompson, her best heats for those seasons being 
2:29^ and 2:30. 



JIM IRVING.— Record 2:23. 

Bay gelding; foaled in 1S65; sired by Snowstorm; dam by Lear's 
Sir William. Although this horse has been on the the turf a num- 
ber of seasons he has never been a reliable performer or a prominent 
winner. He obtained his record at Springfield, Mass., August 26th, 
1875. In 1878 he was compaigned, his best winning credit that 
season being 2:28.

JOHN R— Record 2:23. 

Brown gelding; foaled in 1870; sired by Idol; dam, Lady Kate. 
In 1879 he dropped into the '30 list, reducing his record from 2:55 
to 12:28. In 1880 he repeated his record. In 1881, at Louisville, 
Ky., September 27th, in the '27 class, he won the fourth and fifti 
heats, the time of the latter being his present record. 

JOE RHEA.— Record 3:23. 

Bay gelding; breeding unknown. This now wefl-known horse 
has had quite an eventful history. Some years ago a gentleman in 
Alabama got him in the way of trade at $90. At that time he could 
show about a three-minute gait. In 1878 the noted trainer and 
driver, Ed. Geers, was in the south and took the horse to Tennessee, 
and handled him. In 1879 ne trotted a number of races, getting a 
record of 2:35^. During the two following seasons he was "off," 
and again changed hands at $300. In 1882 he came out as fine as 
silk, and at Louisville, Ky., Oct. nth, in the '25 class, he won the 
second heat, getting his present record. It is now known he can trot 
in '20 very handy, and his value is counted not by hundreds, but by 
round figures in the thousands. 

KATIE MIDDLETON.— Record 2:23. 

Chestnut mare; foaled in 1873; sired by Mambrino Patchen; dam, 
Flora, by Alexander's Abdallah. In 1878 she began trotting without 
a record, and closed the season with 2:30 to her credit. In 1879, at 
Louisville, Ky., July 9th, she obtained her present record. This 
fast mare has never been a success owing to her wilful disposition, 
being a confirmed puller. She has now been retired for breeding 
parposes. 

KATE McCALL.— Record 2:23. 

Gray mare; foaled in 1875; sired by Blue Bull; dam, unknown. 
She began the season of 1881 without a record. At Pittsburgh, Pa., 
Sept. 14th, in the '24 class, she won the first and third heats, the 
time of the former being her present record. This season she is in 
fine form and very fast. 

LADY TURPIN.— Record 2:23. 

Black mare; foaled in 1869; sired by Bell Morgan; dam by Brig- 
noli. In 1875, at Rochester, N. Y., Aug. nth, she obtained her 
record. Since then she does not appear as a prominent winner, ex- 
cept in 1878, when she placed 2:26 to her credit as her best season 
performance. She has won fourteen heats in 2:30 and better.

Jr. ; dam by Rysdyk's Hambletonian. In 1876 he began his trotting

heats in the 2:30 records are all he has yet placed to his credit. 

SCOTT'S CHIEF.— Record 2:23. 

Bay gelding; sired by the Fisher hors 2; he by Edwin Forrest; dam, 
Lady Rice. In 1879 ne began the season with 2:33^ to his credit

TRAMPOLINE.— Record 2:23. 

Chestnut mare; foaled in 1870; sired by Tramp; dam Yellow Bird, 
by Green's Bashaw. In 1876 she started without a record, closing

reduced to 2:24^. In 1881 at Springfield 5 Mass., Aug. 24th, in the 
'27 class, he won the third heat, getting his present record. It is 
evident if he acquired a record of 2:24^ in 1880, he could not start 
in the '27 class in 1881, and as several authorities give date and place 
of this previous record, where the error is we are unable to say.

Brown mare, sired by Echo, he by Rysdyk's Hambletonian; dam 
by Jack Hawkins' Son of Boston. In 1879 she dropped into the '30 
list, reducing her record from 2:31 to 2:28. In 1880 this was again 
reduced to 2:26^. In 188 1 she lowered the figures to 2:25. In 
1882, at Stockton, Cal., Sept. 20th, she obtained her present record. 

FLORENCE.— Record 2:23>(. 

Chestnut mare; foaled in 1875; sired by Highland Gray; dam by 
Adam's Rattler. In 1880, beginning with a record of 2:40, she 
closed the season with 2:25 ^ to her credit. In 188 1 this was re- 



66 

duced to 2:24^. In 1882, at Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 3d, in the '23 
class, she won, the time of the fourth heat being her present record. 



GOLDFINDER.— Record 2:23^. 

Chestnut stallion; foaled in 1873; sired by John Lambert, he by 
Daniel Lambert; dam, unknown. In 1878. he dropped into the

1882, at Lexington, Ky, Oct. 12th, he won the 3:00 class in straight 
heats; time 2:28^, 2:23/4^, 2:26 j£. This seasonhe is reported to be 
in fine form, and will probably lower his present record by several 
seconds. 

INDEPENDENCE.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay stallion; 16 hands high; foaled in 1873; sired by Young 
Hindoo; dam, Fanny Fern. In 1881, starting without a record, he 
closed the season with 2:30 to his credit. In 1882, at Poughkeepsie, 
N. Y., Aug. 23d, he trotted his most prominent race, requiring six 
heats to decide it. Independence winning the first in 2:25^, trot- 
ting the second a dead heat with Overman in 2:23^ (his present rec- 
ord); in the third he finished a close second in 2:21 %£ } and won the 
fourth in 2:27^, but losing the race to Overman. It was certainly 
no disgrace to be beaten by such a rival. Independence has had but 
little professional handling, and for his opportunities certainly showed 
remarkably well. With no mishaps he is sure to trot in 2:20. 

LADY SNELL.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay mare; foaled in 1865; sired by Godfrey's Patchen; dam

season and seems to be acting well. t 

MADELEINE.— Record 2:23^. 

Brown mare; sired by Rysdyk's Hambletonian; dam, Nancy Whit- 
man, by Seely's American Star. This young mare, although now 
credited with a fast record, is very promising, and should no accident 
befall her she is liable to chip off several seconds from the present 
mark. At Hartford, Conn., June 14th, 1883, in the '32 class, she 
won the first heat in 2:23^, getting second money. 

PHIL.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay gelding. Pedigree unknown. In 1878 he began the season 
with a record of 2:50, which at Utica, N. Y., August 15th, he re- 
duced to its present figure. Since then he has not been a winner in 
any prominent races, being credited with only three heats won in 
2:30 or better. 

POST-BOY.— Record 2:23^ 

Chestnut stallion; foaled in 1873; sired by Magic, he by American 
Clay; dam, by Berkley's Edwin Forrest. In 1877, as a four-year-old, 
he reduced his record from 2:32^ to 2:28^. In 1878 this was again 
reduced to 2:24^. In 1879 at Lexington, Ky., October 16th, he 
obtained his present record. In 1880 he repeated his record. In 
188 1 he was entered through the Grand Circuit in the two mile heat 
class and was often a winner. At Cleveland, O., July 28th, in this 
class, he won, best time 4:52^. In 1882, 2:24 was his best winning 
time. 

PROSPECT MAID.— Record 2:23^.

2:26. In 1882, at Utica, N. Y., Oct. 4th, in a match race against 

The Utica & Black River R. R. direct to Thousand Islands, 



68 

Cornelia she won in straight heats, the time of the second heat be- 
ing her present record. She is handled by Mr. Chas. Green, and 
during this season will bear watching as she has repeatedly trotted 
trials in 2:20. 

RIGOLETTE.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay mare; sired by Exchequer; dam, Bell Gentry. In 1882 she 
began the season with a record of 2:35, and at East Saginaw, Mich.,

Boston, Mass., July 22d, in the free-for-all purse he won the first two 
heats, getting his present record. 

SCIOLA.— Record 2:23%.

In 1879 sne began the season with a record of 2:32^, and at Lex- 
ington, Ky. s Oct. 14th, obtained her present record. In 1880 2:25^ 
was her best winning time. In 1881 2:26^ was the mark she put to 
her season record. In 1882 she was faster than in either of the two 
preceding seasons, placing 2:24^ to her season credit, and there is 
no doubt that if necessary she could have equaled if not reduced her 
previous record. 

ST. CLOUD.— Record 2:23X- 

Bay gelding; sired by Conklin's Star; dam, by Bay Richmond. 
Previous to 1879 ne na d acquired a record of 2:30^. In that year 
he was credited with a record of 2:28, obtained at Rochester, N. Y., 
May 27th, when he won a race for the '30 class, but this record has 
since been expunged (we presume because it was merely an exhibi- 
tion race), and he has started this season in the '30 class. At 
Point Breeze Park, Philadelphia, Pa., May 18, he won the race for 
the '30 class in straight heats, time 2:24%, 2:23^ 2:28^. The 
time of the second heat being his present record. He has been very

24th, he won the purse for four-year-olds in straight heats, best time 
2:58. Five years after this, in 1878, he is credited in the records as 
beginning the season a green horse, and closing it with a record of 
2:25^. In 1879 this was reduced to 2:24. In 1880 he chipped off 
a fraction, leaving it 2:23^. In 1882, at Hartford, Conn,, July 4th, 
he won the '24 class in straight heats, getting his present record in 
the third heat. 

TONY NEWELL.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay gelding; sired by Clark Chief. Since the opening of the cam- 
paign for 1883, this horse has been kept very busy, and has been a 
very prominent winner. At Louisville, Ky. t May nth, he won the 
race for the '30 class, best time 2:253^. At Maysville, Ky,, May 17th, 
he won the '30 class, losing two heats to Willis Woods. At Pittsburg,

class in straight heats, best time 2:29^. At Erie, Pa., June 27th 
and 28th, he won the race for the '24 class, losing two heats to St. 
Cloud. This makes an unbroken chain of victories, and M. M. 
Hedges is to be congratulated that in Tony he has a first-class winner. 

YORK STATE.— Record 2:23^. 

Bay gelding; foaled in 1867; sired by Gooding's Champion; dam, 
unknown. His record was made in 1875, at Cleveland, O., July

August 29th, in the '28 class, he won, the time of the third heat being 
his present record. In 1881, 2:26 was his best season credit. Being 
a large horse he required age to give him strength to carry his speed, 
and as he is now just in his prime we may reasonably look to see 
him, when in good condition, lower his present record by several 
seconds. 

GRAY CLOUD.— Record 2:23^.

Sept. 2d, in the '34 class he sold for two dollars in pools of one hun- 
dred, but won the race in straight heats; best time 2:24^. At

he does not appear as a winner and probably was not campaigned.

In 1878, at Freeport, 111., May 30th, he obtained his present record. 
In 1881 he was a busy campaigner, starting in sixteen races, winning 
six and netting nearly $2,000 in purses,* getting a credit of 2:26^ as 
his best season performance. In 1882 he was again in fine form, 
scoring 2:25^ as his best winning heat during the campaign. Dur- 
ing his turf career he has won thirty-one races. 

MAGENTA.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay mare; sired by Woodford Mambrino; dam, Madge by Alexan- 
der's Abdallah. In 1876 she was started without a record, closing

the free-for-all class in a race of six heats, beating such good ones as 
Mollie Morris, Cozette and Fred Hoope r , winning the first, third and

18792:28 was his best performance. He has won fifteen heats in 
2:30 and better. 

STONEWALL.— Record 2:24^. 
Chestnut gelding; sired by Frank Pierce, Jr.; dam, by thorough- 
bred Moscow. In 1880 he began the season with a record oi 2:04. 
At Washington, D. C, October 9th, he won the '24 class in straight 
heats, getting his present record in the first heat. In 1881, 2:25 was 
his best winning time. During 1882 his best heat was 2i2g)^ m 

VALLEY BOY.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay gelding; sired by Aberdeen. In 1882 he began the season 
with a record of 2:32^. At Albany, N. Y., September 27th, he 
won the '33 class, getting his present record in the fourth heat the 
fastest in the race. This season he is very fast and is liable to 
lower his record. 

WILBUR F.— Record 2:24^. 
Black gelding; foaled in 1872; sired by the Hinsdale horse; dam, 
unknown. In 1880 he began the season without a record, and driven 
by John Splann, was a very successful horse. At Buffalo, N. Y., 
Aug. 4th, he won the '36 class in straight heats; best time 2:2s %\ 
He also won the same class at Springfield, Mass.; Aug. 18th; best 
time 2:26. At Hartford, Conn., Aug. 26th, he obtained his present 
record. 

WINDSOR.— Record 2:24^. 
Roan gelding; sired by Lewiston Boy; dam, unknown. In 1879 
he began trotting without a record. At Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 
24th, in the '40 class, he won third money. At St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 
3d, he obtained his present record. 

BLONDINE.— Record 2:24^. 
Chestnut mare; foaled in 1874; sired by Geo. Wilkes; dam, Flaxy 
by Kentucky Clay. In 1879 she began the season with a record of 
2 -'35^, which at Lexington, Ky., Oct. 15th she reduced to the pres- 
ent figures. Her best performance, however, was after she had 
been retired from the turf and was used for road driving. At Beacon 
Park, Boston, Mass., Sept. 23d, 1881, driven to the pole with Mill 
Boy, the team trotted a mile in 2:22; at that time the best on record 
for that way of going. They are owned by Mr. John Shepard, of 
Boston, and can undoubtedly trot together with everything favorable 
a mile in 2:20. 



COL. DAWES. -Record 2:24^. 

Bay gelding; pedigree unknown. In 1878 he began the season 



86 

with a record of 2:36, but this mark was no indication of his speed. 
He was trotted through the west early in the season to put the fine 
edge on him preparatory to the Grand Circuit. His present record 
was obtained in the '30 class at Utica, N. Y., Aug. 15th. During 
subsequent seasons he does not appear to have been campaigned. 

DAN. DONALDSON.— Record 2:24^. 

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1870; sired by Imp. Bonnie Scotland; 
dam by Pilot, Jr. In 1880 he dropped into the '30 list, reducing his 
record from 2:38 to 2:28. In 1881, at Chicago, 111., July 23d, he won 
the '27 class in a rattling race of seven heats, winning the fourth, 
fifth and seventh ? the time of the fifth being his present record. In 
1882 2:27^ was his best winning time. He has recently been sold 
and shipped to Scotland to be campaigned there. 



ELWOOD MEDIUM.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay stallion; sired by Happy Medium. In 1881 he began the sea- 
son with a record of 2:31^. At Beacon Park, Boston, Mass., Sept. 
16th, he obtained his present record. At Morrisania, N. Y., Octo- 
ber 5 th, he won the sweepstakes for stallions that had never beaten 
2:30; time 2:26^, 2:26^', 2:26^. In 1882 he was not cam- 
paigned. 

GALATEA.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay mare; foaled in 1873; sired by Fearnought; dam, Grand 
Duchess. In 1877 she began her turf career, closing the season with 
a record of 2:25^. This was not reduced until in 1881, at Provi- 
dence, R. I., August 2d, when she won the '25 class, getting her 
present record in the second heat. 

EDWIN A.— Record 2:24^. 

(Sentinel.) Brown gelding ; sired by Gooding's Champion. He 
began the season of 1882 without a record, but closed the year inside 
of the '30 line, having placed 2:29^ to his credit. During 1883 he 
has been very fast and a prominent winner. At Pittsburg, Pa., June 
2d, he won the race for the '30 class, taking the third, fourth and 
fifth heats ; time 2:28^, 2:29^, 2:28^- At Cleveland, O., June 
7th, he won the race for the '30 class, reducing his record to 2:25. 
At Bradford, Pa., June 14th, he won the race for the '27 class ; best 
time 2:25. At the same place, on the 16th, in the free-for-all, he 
won the third heat, getting second money. At Dunkirk, N. Y., 
June 19th, he won the '27 class; best time 2:27^. At Erie, Pa., 
June 29th, he won the free-for-all, beating J. B. Thomas, Kate Mc- 
Call and others, the time of the first heat being 2:24^. This, over 



87 

a half mile track, stamps him as a very superior horse, and he can 
undoubtedly trot a good mile track in 2:20. 



HARDWOOD.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay stallion, 16 hands high; sired by Blackwood, Jr.; dam by 
Columbus. In 1882 he began the campaign with a record of 2:35, 
but it was an "open secret" that he possessed great speed, and was 
considered one of the most promising young horses in the country. 
At Chicago, 111., July 18th, in the '35 class, although obliged to lower 
his colors to Clara Cleveland, it was no disgrace to be beaten by such 
an opponent. He won the fourth heat in 2:27^, and trotted the 
sixth a dead heat, the time being his present record, getting second 
money, and leaving a large field, including some of the best horses 
in the country placed below him for positions. If campaigned this 
season, and no mishap befalls him, we look to see him lower his record 
to 2:20 or better. 

LADY MILLS.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay mare; foaled in 1869; sired by Chosroes, he by Rysdyk's Ham- 
bletonian; dam by Seely's American Star. In 1877 sne entered the

N. Y., Aug. 1st, she scored her present record. 

LOUIS D.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay gelding; sired by King William. In 1882 he began the season 
without a record. At Sacramento, Cal., Sept. nth, he won the '40 
class, taking the second, third and fourth heats; time 2:24^, 2:24^, 

3:25^. 

MAY THORNE.— Record 2:24^. 

Bay mare, 16 hands high; sired by Thornedale; dam by Rich's 
Jupiter. In 1882 she began the season without a record, but in the 
hands of the veteran Turner was very speedy, and had she been "cut 
loose" would have scored a mark long before she did. At Pough- 
keepsie, N. Y., Aug. 24th, in the '33 class she won her first race, 
getting a record of 2:26 j^. At Beacon Park, Boston, Mass., Sept. 
19th, she won the '38 class, getting her present record in the fourth 
heat. 

ANODYNE.— Record 2:25. 

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1863; sired by the Ross colt, he by 
the Burke horse; dam by Young Hogarth. H< 1 cgan the reason of 
1377 with a record of 2:41, which was no measure of his speed, as he 
closed this campaign with his present record made at Beacon Park,

88 

Boston, Mass., Oct. 19th. In 1878 he was started in seven races, 
winning six in straight heats. In 1880 and '81 he was equally fast, 
scoring 2:29 in the former and 2:27 in the latter year, as his best 
winning performances. In 1882 he was reported as being sold to 
parties in Ohio and started as a ringer. What his prospects are for 
the present season we are unable to say. 

AMBER.— Record 2:25. 

Bay stallion; foaled in 1871; sired by Clear Grit; dam by Royal 
Revenge, In 1879 ne began the season with a record of 2:34, drop- 
ping into the '30 list during the campaign with a credit of 2:30. In 
1880, at Rochester, N. Y., June 4th, he won the '30 class, winning 
the second and third heat, each in the time of his record, and the 
fourth in 2:26. In 1881 he was a prominent horse, starting in twelve 
races, including the 2:24 class two mile heats in the grand circuit, 
was four times a winner, and at three others a winner of heats, scor- 
ing 2:26 as his best winning time during the season. In 1882 he was 
again to "an edge," repeating his record as the time of his best 
winning performance. 

AULINDA.— Record 2:25. 

Bay mare; foaled in 1873; sired by Woodward's Ethan Allen; 
dam by Red Bird. In 188 1, starting without a record, she won a 
number of prominent races, and proved herself a fast, reliable cam- 
paigner. At Beacon Park, Boston, Masa., June 13th, she won the 
'30 class, taking the second, third and fourth heats. At Mystic Park, 
June 16th, she won the '29 class in straight heats; best time 2:27^. 
At Springfield, Mass., Sept. 1st, in the '27 class, she won the fifth

and seventh in 2:22^, 2:26. She is owned by Geo. Haner, Melrose, 
N. Y., and during 1881 was driven by James Dougry, who has driven 
many a good orae to a fast record. In 1882 her best winning time 
was 2:30. 

BARNEY KELLEY— Record 2:25. 

Brown gelding; foaled in 1865; sired by Holland's Ethan Allen; 
dam, a Morgan mare. He began his turf career in 1872, and in 
1875 had reduced his record to 2:26X- During 1876 his best credit 
was 2:29. In 1877, at Providence, R. 1., Nov. 1st, he obtained his 
present record. 1878 was his last season on the turf, but he was not 
a prominent winner. During his career he 'has won first position in 
twenty-eight races, and thirty-eight heats in 2:30 and better. 

BARRETT.— Record 2:25. 

Bay stallion; sired by Chester Chief; dam, by Houston's Clay. In 
1882 he began trotting without a record. At Springfield, Mass.. 



8 9 

September 7th, in the '34 class, he won the third and fourth heats, 
the time of the latter being his present record. 

BILL THUNDER.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Robin Clay; dam, by Alexander's Abdallah. 
In 1876 he started "green," and at Lexington, Ky., October 19th, 
scored his present record. Since then he has been withdrawn from 
the turf. 

CHARLIE MAC— Record 2:25. 

Chestnut gelding; sired by Holabird's Ethan Allen; dam, the 
dam of Laura Williams. He began the season of 1876 with a record 
of 2:313^, which during the campagn he reduced to 2:26^. In 1877 
at Mystic Park, June nth, he made his present record. Since that 
season his name does not appear among the winners. 

CHICAGO MAID.— Record 2:25. 

Chestnut mare, 15^ hands high; foaled in 187 1; sired by the 
Holmes horse; dam Illinois Maid. In 1878 she began the season 
with a record of 2:32^. At Chicago, 111., Oct. nth, she won the 
race for the '26 class, losing the first heat to G. T. Pilot in 2:24, 
winning the next three; time 2:25, 2:26, 2:25^. Six heats won in 
2:30 and better are placed to her credit. She is now used for road 
driving, and is generally found at the front in the fastest company. 

DAVID C— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; breeding unknown. In 1881 he began the season 
with a record of 2:45, which, at Chicago, 111., Sept. 19th, he reduced 
to the present figure. This mark is scarcely a measure of his speed, 
and he is also very fast to the pole. Driven with Argonaut (2:23^), 
it was claimed the team could trot a mile very close to 2:20. They 
speed without weights or boots, and were the model team of the 
"Garden City." 

DOUGLASS.— Record 2:25. 

Gray gelding, 15 hands 1 inch high; foaled in 1876; sired by 
Washington ; dam unknown. In 1882 he was started without a 
record, and during the campaign was one of the most prominent 
horses on the turf. At Providence, R. I., June 3d, he won the '45 
class; best time, 2:27^. At Boston, Mass., June 6th, he won the 
3:00 class, getting his present record in the first heat. At Chicago, 
111., July 20th, in the '40 class, although getting but fourth position, 
it was the opinion of many, that had he been given his head, his po- 
sition would have been bettered considerably. In the first heat he 



9 o 

went to a break immediately after getting the word, and at the quar- 
ter was nearly a distance out. At the half he was level, and coming 
like a whirlwind finished third, trotting the last half at a 2:13 gait. 
With good day and track he can trot a mile very close to 2:20, and 
as he is in fine form, we may expect to see him chip off several sec- 
onds this season from his present record. 

ELLA EARL.— Record 2:25. 

Bay mare; foaled in 1872; sired by Aimont; dam, by Breckin- 
ridge. In 1879 sne began the season with a record of 2:35, and

tered through the Illinois Circuit. At Aurora, 111., July 29th, she 
won the '26 class, best time 2:27. At Prophetstown, 111., August 
9th and nth, she won two heats in the free-for-all class, but only 
secured third position. At Mendota, 111., August 15th, she won the 
'25 class in straight heats, time 2:27)^, 2:27, 2:28. In 1880 she re- 
peated her record as her best performance for that season. During

known. His record was made at Springfield, Mass., August 19th, 
1874. In 1877 he was campaigned, scoring 2:25^ as his best per- 
formance. He is now used for road driving and it takes a right 
good one to down him. 

FRANK F.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Emperor William. In 188 1 he began the 
season without a record, but proved himself possessed of speed 
enough to get one in fast company. At Mystic Park, Boston,

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1869; sired by Paragon; dam by Par- 
ish's Colonel. His trotting career began in 1874, but it was not until

to 2:27. This was not again reduced until in 1879, when, at Mystic 
Park, Boston, Mass., Sept. 10th, "he won the '27 class, getting his 
present record in the fourth heat. In 1880 his best winning heat was 
2:25^. Since then he has not been campaigned.

he obtained his present record. In 1880 his best winning perform- 
ance was 2:29^. During 1881 and 1882 he does not appear to have

JOE RIPLEY.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Sawin's Hambletonian; dam, by Black Ar-

on the turf and he repeated his record of 2:25. In four seasons his

markable credit. During his seven campaigns he won the great 
number of fifty-two races with fifty-one heats in 2:30 and better. 
He is now used for road driving. 

JOHN HALL.— Record 2:25.

However, she is credited in the printed records of the year, as hav- 
ing a record of 2:28^ made on this date. In 188 1 she was not cam-

money and her present record. In 1877 she scored 2:25^ as her best 
performance. In 1878 2:27 y^ was her best winning heat. Since then 
we believe she has not been campaigned. She has won seven heats 
in 2:30 and better.

not take away her speed. In 1882 her best winning credit was 2:30, 
but most of her races were trotted on slow, half-mile tracks, and she 
rarely started without getting a piece of the money. During her ca- 
reer of nine years she has won first position in thirty-six races. 

POSCORA HAYWARD.— Record 2:25. 

Gray stallion; sired by Billy Hay ward; dam by Young Poscora.

ROBERT B. THOMAS.— Record 2:25. 

Chestnut gelding; foaled in 1 871; sired by Prince Allen; dam 
unknown. In 1879, beginning with a record of 2:40, he came to the 
front, placing his name in the '25 list, getting his present record that 
season at Mystic Park, Boston, Mass., Oct. 7th. 

ST. LOUIS.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Colossus Mambrino. He began the season 
of 1882 without a record, put proved himself quite a trotter. At 
Cleveland, O., Sept. 6th, in the '33 class he sold, as the saying is, for 
11 a dollar in a hundred," and in the first two heats was placed tenth. 
The third, fourth and fifth heats he won very handily, getting his 
present record. His owner evidently did not lose any money in the 
pool box. He is said to be very fast, and that his present record is 
not a marker for him by several seconds. 

TOM HENDRICKS.— Record 2:25. 

Brown gelding; breeding unknown. In 188 1, beginning without 
a record he was entered in the slow classes in the Grand Circuit. At 
Cleveland, O., July 20th, in the '30 class he won the first heat, get- 
ting his present record, but was unable to get better than third posi- 
tion in the race. At Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 2d, he did not do as well, 
being placed eighth. At Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 9th, in the fifth 
heat he was distanced for foul driving. In 1882 he did not appear 
as a prominent winner.

TOM KEELER.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Jersey Star; dam, unknown. This remark- 
able horse has had a most extraordinary turf career, and to-day has 
placed to his credit more campaigns than any horse now in active 
duty He won his first race under the name of Cayuga Chief, in 
1867', and from that time up to, and including 1882, he has been 
campaigned and has been a winner during every season but two; six- 
teen seasons of trotting have not yet ' laid out " the old veteran, 
and he is coming up for the word as game as ever during the present 
campaign. A detailed sketch of his races would almost fill a book. 
When he could not get first money he generally captured a piece, and 
his total winnings foot up a much larger sum than any other recent 
trotter of his speed. His record was made at Detroit, Mich., July 
5th, 1877. During his career he has won first position in 37 races, 
and a total in purses, etc., of over $25,000. 

VALLEY CHIEF.— Record 2:25. 

Gray stallion; foaled in 1872; sired by Phil. Sheridan; dam un- 
known. In 1880 he began the season with a record of 2:3314, which, 
at Hartford, Conn., June 24th, he reduced to the present figure. In 
1881 he was in good form, and starting in ten races, won three, and 
heats in three others, scoring 2:25^ as his best winning performance. 
In 1882 he was driven on the road and was very fast, both single and 
to the pole. 

VULCAN.— Record 2:25. 

Black gelding; sired by Green Mountain Banner; dam by Vermont 
Hambletonian. In 1876 he was owned by George Haner of Mel- 
rose N. Y., and although getting no record better than 2:4134, it was 
well' known that he could trot very close to 2:30, and he was con- 
sidered one of the most promising young horses on the turf. In 
1877 he was sent to the front, getting his present record at Mystic 
Park, Boston, Mass., June 18th. . In 1878 he repeated his record as 
his best performance for that year. Since then he does not appear as 
a prominent winner. 

WILLIS WOODS.— Record 2:25. 

Bay gelding; sired by Rescue. He began the season of 1882 with 
a record of 2:31, reducing the figures during the year to 2:29^, 
which remained his record at the opening of the campaign for 1883. 
This year has again reduced the figures. At Maysville, Ky., May 
17th, in the '30 class, he won two heats in 2:26^ and 2:25, getting 
his present record and second money.

BRONZE.— Record 2:23%. 

Bay mare, 15J4 hands high ; foaled in 1878 ; sired by Morrison's 
Morgan Messenger, Jr. This mare was formerly a pacer, but 
changed her gait and took to trotting naturally without weighting. 
She began the season of 1882 without a record, but with a great turn 
of speed that soon gave her one well down in the twenties. At 
Chicago, 111., July 15th, in the stake race for four-year-olds, she won 
the third and fourth heats, getting a record of 2:253^. This season 
she is faster than ever. At Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 22d, 
1883, in the race for five-year-olds, she won the first heat, the time 
being her present record. At the same place, June 29th, she won 
the race for the '25 class, losing the fourth heat to Big Fellow; time 
of race 2:24^, 2:23%, 2:23^, 2:24^. 

BIG FELLOW.— Record 2:23^. 

Brown gelding; sired by Edward Everett; dam by Henry Clay. 
In 1876 his trotting career began, and at the close of this campaign 
he had acquired a record of 2:27^. In 1877 this was reduced to 
2:26^. In 1879 it was again reduced to 2:26. This remained his 
record until 1883, when, at Island Park, Albany, N. Y., June 30th, 
in the '25 class, he won the third heat, getting his present record and 
second money. 

ADELE CLARK.— Record 2:25^. 

Bay mare ; foaled in 1870; sired by Ledger; dam by Stephen A. 
Douglass. In 1877 sne began her turf career, owned by Don A. 
Clark, of Fredonia, N. Y., and was at this time one of the most 
promising "green ones" in the country. She was started in the 
Michigan Circuit, winning all her races in a jog. At Kalamazoo, 
Mich., June 13th, she won the 3:00 class, dropping the first heat — 
three horses being behind the flag — time 2:26^, winning the second, 
shutting out all but one competitor, and in the third distancing him 
in the time of her present record. At Grand Rapids, Mich., June 
19th, she won the 3:00 class in straight heats, beating a fast field, 
including the well-known flyers Deck Wright and Edwin Forrest ; 
best time 2*29^. She was entered through the Grand Circuit in the 
'25 class, and in her preparatory work was repeatedly timed in the 
14 teens," but her owner's financial affairs became involved, she was 
not started, leaving her under suspension, and a brilliant career 
ruined almost at the beginning. During 1878 and 1879 sne was 
trotted on non-association tracks, scoring 2:30 in the former and 2:28 
in the latter year as her best winning performances. Since then she 
has been retired, her pedigree and great speed making her very de* 
sirable as a matron,

Hindoo. The turf career of this remarkable horse began in 1874 at 
Copake, N. Y„. Aug. 2ist> when he won the 3:00 class in straight 
heats', best time 2 53. It was not until 1876 that he entered the '30 
list, reducing his record from 2:43 %. to 2:30. In 1877 he was en- 
tered through the West as the horse Brightwood, eligible to the slow 
classes, and his managers succeeded in getting away with considerable 
money before being exposed. During this year he reduced his record 
to 2.27 at Boston, Mass. In 1880 his best winning performance was 
2:27J^ 4 In 1881 he was started in twenty-two races, winning nine, 
and a place in nearly all the others. His present record was made

DICK ORGAN.— Record 2:25^. 

Black gelding; sired by Commodore. He closed the season of 
1 88 1, just over the dividing line, having 2:30^ placed to his credit. 
In 1882 he was very fast, and closed the season with his record re- 
duced to 2:25^. During 1883 he has been kept busy trotting races 
almost every week, and is in fine form. We look to see him lower 
his record again before the roll is called January 1st, 1884. 

DIXIE SPRAGUE.— Record 2:25%. 

Bay mare; sired by Gov. Sprague. Her record was made at Cleve- 
land, O., June 8th, 1883, when she won the race for the '40 class in

she has been sent home to be bred. She is owned by Hon. J. I. 
Case, Racine, Wis 

ELMER.— Record 2\2$%. 

Brown gelding; sired by Gooding's Champion. He began the 
season of 1882 with a record of 2:36, but this mark was no indica- 
tion of his speed. At Mystic Park, Boston, Mass., June 7th, in the 
'33 class, he won the first heat, getting second money and a record of 
2:26^. At Hartford, Conn., June 21st, in the same class, he won in

FLORENCE M.— Record 2:25^. 

Chestnut mare; sired by Blue Bull. She began the season of 1882 
with a record of 3:00, but proved herself a performer worthy of the 
illustrious family to which she belongs. At Maysville, Ky., May 
1 6th, she won the race for the 2:40 class in straight heats; time, 
2.25^; 2:27^; 2:28. At Toledo, O., June 2d, she won the same

in the same class, she won two heats, getting second money. At

FRANK.— Record 2:25X- 

Bay gelding; sired by Abraham. He began the season of 1882 
with a record of 2*38, and driven by James Dougrey, was a very 
prominent horse, closing the year with a record of 2:26X» During 
the season of 1883 he has been faster than ever. At Belmont Park, 
Philadelphia, Pa,, May 24th, he won the race for the '26 class in 
straight heats; time 2:25^ 2:28, 2:26^. At the same place on the 



99

L, June 7th, in the '25 class, he won third money. At Hartford, 
Conn., June 15th, in the '25 class, he was a close second in the third

close the season with a record very close to 2.20. 

FRED CASEY.— Record 2:25^. 

Chestnut gelding, sired by Fessenden; dam unknown. In 1879 ne 
began trotting without a record, closing the season with 2:26 to his 
credit. In 1880 he chipped off a fraction, leaving it 2:25^. In 
1881, at Albany,, N. Y., May 30th, he obtained a record of 2:23^, 
but we understand it was subsequently shown the race was merely an 
exhibition, and, therefore, the record was set aside, leaving it as in 
1880, 2:25X« In 1882 2:28^ was his best winning heat. 

FRED. CROCKER.— Record 2:25^. 

Bay stallion, 15^ hands high; foaled in 1878; sired by Electioneer, 
he by Rysdyk's Hambletonian; dam, Melniche by St. Clair. His

been eclipsed by Bonita and Wildflower. 

GEORGE K.— Record 2:25X- 

Gray gelding; sired by Swigert. He began the season of 1881 
without a record, but evidently with a good turn of speed, which

Bay gelding; sired by Daniel Lambert; dam by American Ethan. 
In 1878 he began trotting without a record, scoring at Hartford, 
Conn., August 22d, a record of 2:25^. In 1880 he was credited 
with a record of 2:24^, made at Lyons, N. Y., but subsequent com- 
pilations seem to discard this and retain the former figures. In 1881 
his best winning performance was 2:25^. In 1882, 2:27^ was his 
best winning heat. 

LEWINSKL— Record 2:2534:. 

Bay gelding; sired by Big John, he by Mambrino Pilot. In 1874

formance. In 1877, at Kalamazoo, Mich., June 14th, in the '26 
class, he won the fifth heat, the time being his present record. In 
1878, 2:26^ was his best winning time; 1879 was n * s ^ ast season on 
the turf, his best credit during that campaign being 2:25^. 

McLEOD.— Record 2.25X.

the dam of Eric. In 1881, beginning without a record at Lexington, 
Ky., August 6th, he placed the present record to his credit. In 1882 
he does not appear to have been campaigned. 

ONWARD.— Record 2:25^. 

Bay stallion; sired by George Wilkes; dam, Dollie (Thornedale and 
Dictator's dam). In 1881 he began trotting without a record. At

of 1882 without a record, and in the Northwest became quite a promi- 
nent horse. At Minneapolis, Minn., July 3d, he won the race for the 



101 

3:00 class in straight heats; best time 2:30^. At the same place 
on the 5th inst., he won the race for the '45 class; best time 2:28^.

Bay gelding, 16^ hands high; sired by Surprise; dam, unknown. 
(Also known as Tom Scott.) In 1879 he began the season with a 
record of 2:34, and he then gave promise of being one of the fastest 
horses on the turf, but the expectations of his managers were not 
realized. At Columbus, O., July 18th, he obtained his present 
record. He is still in his prime, and liable to come to the front and 
knock off several seconds from his present marks. 

STAR.— Record 2:25X-

getting his present record on the 27th; he also won the '50 class, best 
time 2:26^. He was entered through the Grand Circuit, but found 
the company too fast for him, and we believe was not a winner. In 
1880 his best winning time was 2:293^. During 1881 and 1882 he 
was not campaigned. 

STELLA BLAKE.— Record 2:25^. 

Brown mare; sired by Pequawket. In 1881, beginning the season 
with a record of 2:31 at Beacon Park, Boston, Mass., Sep. 14th, she

DREAM.— Record 2\2$%. 

Bay mare, 16 hands high; foaled in 1871; sired by Curtis' Ham- 
bletonian; dam, Nicola, by Reveille. In 1878, beginning the season 
with a record of 2:31, at Cincinnati, O., July 5th, (over a half mile 
track), she obtained her present record. In 1880 her best winning 
time was 2:27^. Although campaigned during 1881, she was not a 
prominent winner. In 1882 she was not on the turf. This mare, 
with her great turn of speed, is such a bad actor that but little reli- 
ance can be placed on her. If she gets the word with her head level 
it takes a good one to down her, but she is liable to be behind the 
flag, and it is not probable she will ever be a desirable campaigner. 

EVA.— Record 2:25^. 

Bay mare; sired by Gooding's Champion. Her record was made at 
Cleveland, O., July 28th, 1875. She was campaigned during 1876

best winning performances. 

H. C. HILL.— Record 2:25^.

ester, N. Y., Aug. 13th, 1874. During recent years he has not been

Bay gelding; foaled in 1872; breeding unknown. In 1880 he began 
trotting without a record, and was quite a prominent horse, being 
entered through the Grand Circuit, and had not Daisy Dale been in 
the same class, Grant would undoubtedly have been often a winner, 
as he could show 2:20 or better, and kept in good form during the 
campaign. His record was made at Chicago, 111., July 20th, in that 
year. During 1881 and 1882 he does not appear as a prominent 
winner. 

KATE CAMPBELL.— Record 2:25^. 

Brown mare; sired by Scott's Hiatoga; dam by Ethan Allen. Her 
record was made at Sandusky, O., September 24th, 1874. During

record. At Hartford, Conn., June 26th, she won the '34 class, in

she does not appear to have been campaigned. 

LYMAN.— Record 2:25^. 

Dun gelding; sired by Bay Chief, he by Napoleon; dam, unknown. 
In 1879 he dropped into the '30 list, reducing his record from 2:37 
to 2:30. In 1880 he was started early, getting his present record at 
Point Breeze Park, May 18th, in the '29 class, when he won the 
second heat, the time being the fastest in the race. During 1881 
and 1882 he was used for road driving. Tic is especially good to 
the pole and a very desirable horse for either o;d or track purposes. 

MAGIC— Record 2:25^. 

Black gelding; breeding unknown to us. At Island Park, Albany, 
N. Y., June 28th, 1883, he won the race for the '38 class, losing the

inent winner.

by Nimrod. In 1878 she reduced her record from 2:38 to 2:29, and

cing mare. In 1879 he was started without a record, closing the sea- 



105 

son with 2:28 to his credit. In 1880 at Chicago, II]., July 20th, he

this mark when he is to an edge, and strikes a good day and track to 
suit him. 

SAN BRUNO.— Record 2T25X. 

Bay gelding; sired by Geo. M. Patchen, Jr. ; dam by Gen. Taylor.

ton Chief, Jr., he by Lexington Chief, he by Kentucky Clay. In

See and Bronze, but in point of speed each of the heat winners 
scored faster records, Waiting winning the first, second and seventh 



ro7 

heats, getting his record in the second heat. A field of four-year-

last heat) will, barring accidents, bear watching this season.

not campaigned again until in 1880, and then in no im-

ting second money. During 1882 he was not campaigned, and will 
not be this season. His present record is not a limit for him by 
several seconds, and he can, undoubtedly, with day and track to suit

or improper conduct, if any has occurred under his observation. But, in the ab- 
sence of a Distance Judge, or on his failure to act, the Judges of the race shall 
determine what horses are distanced.

§ 5. If the Judges believe that a horse is being or has been u pulled," or has 
been ridden or driven in other respects improperly with a design to pi^vent his 
winning a heat which he was evidently able to win, and that such act was done on 
the part of the rider or driver for the purpose of throwing the race, or to perpe- 
trate or aid a fraud, they shall have power to substitute a competent and reliable 
rider or driver for the remainder of the race, who shall be paid a reasonable com- 
pensation for his servicss, but not to exceed $50, which shall be paid by the mem- 
ber, and the member may retain the amount paid from the purse, if any, which

or person or persons controlling the offending horse shall be a party or parties to 
such fraud, he or they, together with the horse, shall be punished by expulsion, 
[See also Rules 32 and 48.] 

Rule 29. — Starting and Keeping Positions. 

Section i. No rider or driver shall cause unnecessary delay after the horses are 
called up, either by neglecting to prepare for the race in time, or by failing to

horses in the race shall immediately turn, at the tap of the bell or other signal 
given, and jog back for a fresh start' But there shall be no recall after the start- 
ing word or signal has been given, and the horses shall be deemed to have started 
in the race when the word "go" is given for the first heat; provided^ however^ 
that if the Judges shall through any error give signal of recall, after having 
given the ivord, Distance shall be waived in that heat, except for foul riding or 
driving. [See also Rule 60, Sec. 2.] 



XIX. 

Sec. 2. The Judges shall, after the first scoring, choose one of the contending 
horses (the pole horse being selected if deemed suitable), to score by. And no

also Rule 40, Sec. 3.] * 

~ § 3. No driver shall be allowed fa sponge out his horse or horses of tener than 
once in five times scoring. 

I § 4. If these requirements are not complied with on the part of any rider or 
driver, the Judges may not only start the race, or give the word without regard to 
the absence or position of the offending party or parties, but the offender may be 
punished by a fine not exceeding $100, or by suspension not to exceed one year. 

§ 5. In all cases the starting word or signal shall be given from the Judges' 
stand, and in no instance shall a standing start be given.

the horses shall start for the succeeding heat in the same positions in reference to 
the pole that they occupied at the finish of the dead heat. 

§ 8. In coming out on the homestretch the foremost horse or horses shall keep 
the positions first selected, or be liable to be distanced; and the hindmost horse or 
horses, when there is sufficient room to pass on the inside, or anywhere 
on the homestretch, without interfering with others, shall be allowed to do so, and 
any party interfering to prevent him or them shall be distanced. 

§9. If a horse, in attempting to pass another on the homestretch, should at any 
time cross or swerve, so as to impede the progress of a horse behind him, he shall 
not be entitled to win that heat. 

§ 10. Although a leading horse is entitled to any part of the track, except after 
selecting his position on the homestretch, he shall not change from the right to the 
left, or from the inner to the outer side of the track, during any part of the race, 
when another horse is so near him that in altering his position he compels the 
horse behina him to shorten his stride, or causes the rider or driver of such other 
horse to pull him out of his stride; neither shall any horse, rider or driver cross, 
jostle or strike another horse, rider or driver, nor swerve or do any other thing that 
impedes the progress of another horse: nor shall any horse, in passing a leading 
horse, take the track of the other horse so soon after getting lead as to cause the 
horse passed to shorten his stride. 

§ ii. In any heat wherein there shall be a violation of any of these restrictions, 
the offending horse shall not be entitled to win the heat, and he shall be placed 
behind all other horses in that heat. And if the impropriety was intentional on 
the part of the rider or driver, the offending horse may be distanced, and the rider 
or driver shall be suspended or expelled. (See Sections 8, 9 and 10; also Rule 48.) 

Rule 30. — Horses Breaking. 

Section i. When any horse or horses break from their gait in trotting or pacing, 
their riders or drivers shall at once pull them to the gait in which they were to go

ahead, shall lose the heat, and the next best horse shall win the heat; and whether 
such breaking horse come out ahead or not, all other horses shall be placed ahead 
of him in that heat, and the Judges shall have discretionary power to distance the 
offending horse or horses, and the rider or driver may be punished by a fine not to 
exceed $100, or by suspension not exceeding one year. 

§ 2. Should the rider or driver comply with this requirement, and the horse 
should gain by a break, twice the distance so gained shall be taken from him at 
the coming out; but this provision must not be so construed as to shield any trot- 
ting or pacing horse from punishment for running. 

§ 3. In case of any horse, in trotting a race, repeatedly breaking, or running, or 



XX. 

pacing, while another horse is trotting, the Judges shall punish the horse so break- 
ing, running or pacing, by placing him last in the heat. 

§ 4. To assist in determining the matters contained in Sections 1, 2 and 3, it shall 
be the duty of one of the Judges to call out during the progress of the race every 
break made, designating by colors or name the horse making it and the character 
of the break, and a Judge or assistant shall at once note the fact in writing. 

§ 5^ A horse breaking at or near the score shall be subject to no greater penalty 
than if he broke on any other part of the track.

made in a dead heat shall constitute a record or bar for each horse making such 
dead heat. [See also Rule 40, Section 2.]

to terminate the race had he won said dead heat, they only shall start again.

§ 1. A horse must win a majority of the heats which are required by the condi- 
tions of the race to be entitled to the purse or stake ; but if a horse shall have dis- 
tanced all competitors in one heat, the race will then be concluded, and such horse 
shall receive the entire purse and stakes contended for. [See Rule 37, Sec. 3.] 

§ 2. When more than one horse remains in the race entitled to be placed at the 
finish of the last heat, the second best horse shall receive the second premium, if 
there be any ; and if there be any third or fourth premium, etc., for which no 
horse has won and maintained a specific place, the same shall go to the winner; 
provided, that the number of premiums awarded shall not exceed the number of 
horses which started in the race. 

§ 3. The foregoing provisions shall always apply in such cases, unless otherwise 
stated in the published conditions of the race. 

§ 4. In deciding the rank of horses other than the winner, as to second, third

Rule 40.— Horses to be Timed. 

Sec. i. The two leading horses shall be separately timed, and if the heat is 
awarded to either, his time only shall be announced and be a record or bar as the

for fraud or ineligibility, he shall retain the record or bar acquired by the. time so 
announced. LSee also Rules 39, 41 and 43.] 

§ 2. In case of a dead heat, the time shall constitute a record or bar for the horses
